Abstract
A fitting or a mounting part, particularly for the connection with a tube-shaped component, comprises an end section, which can be pressed together for establishing a connection. At the end section, a ring-shaped elevation is arranged in which a sealing ring is disposed. According to the invention, a bulge is provided on the elevation. By means of the bulge, a space is formed between the sealing ring and the wall of the end section, such that a fluid can flow between the tube-shaped components. Only by pressing together this leaky point, will a sealed-off connection arrangement be established.
