Abstract

An inner sleeve (12) and an outer sleeve (11) of a tampon applicator provided especially for feminine hygiene form a one-part injection moulding in order to simplify production and assembly. The rear end of the outer sleeve (11) and the front end of the inner sleeve (12) are connected by means of a predetermined breaking point (13). The predetermined breaking point (13) is destroyed due to axial pressure, so that the inner sleeve (12) can be pushed into the outer sleeve (11).
