Abstract
A hose connector with gripping elements (18) pressing a hose (14) on a socket (15) uses a two-part sleeve (24). The two-part sleeve includes a screw piece (25) and an extension sleeve connected to the screw piece by a rotary connection and the two-part sleeve surrounds and supports the hose for a significant portion beyond the clamping area of the gripping elements (18). This inner sleeve (32) also has the funnel-shaped, conical actuating surface (33) for the pressing of the gripping elements.
