Abstract
A clamping connector for pipes and/or tubes () made of a polymer material has at least two pipe/tube connecting elements (). At least one connecting element () includes a plug-in region () which is provided with peripheral ribs (), for slidingly connecting to each of a pipe and/or tube end () against which a flange projection () abuts. At least one tooth-like projection () is disposed on the side of the flange projection (), which is located opposite to the peripheral ribs (). A free space () is provided between the flange projection () and the at least one tooth-like projection (). A plurality of tooth-like projections () are disposed so as to be distributed across a periphery of the polymer connecting piece (). In addition, gaps () are disposed between the individual tooth-like projections (). In addition, the object is solved by means of a clamping connector for pipes and/or tubes () made of a polymer material comprising a polymer connecting piece () as described above.
