Abstract
A sealing arrangement for the temporary attachment of a testing air line to the end of a cigarette has an essentially hollow cylindrical sealing body with flanges projecting radially to the inside and outside of the sealing end. The other end of the sealing body is held firmly. The outside edge of the outwardly projecting flange of the sealing body is inserted into a coaxial annular groove of the bore of a supporting body movable axially toward the held end to elastically deform the sealing body, permitting insertion or removal of the cigarette. In its undeformed state the sealing body seals against the cigarette end.
