A coupling device for a tube having an end portion provided with an outer chamfer, and an associated method. The coupling device includes a tubular body provided internally with an annular sealing element and with an attachment member for retaining the end portion of the tube in leak-tight manner in the body. The device further includes at least one retractable abutment arranged so as to oppose insertion into the body of a tube end portion that is not chamfered but allow insertion of a tube that is chamfered, the chamfer of the tube end portion forming a cam for causing the abutment to retract while the tube is being inserted into the body.
