Abstract
A connection piece for connecting a surface-structured end of a hose extending along a longitudinal direction to a fluid outlet is disclosed, which end comprises at least one recess in its surface, with a sealing space into which the end of the hose can be introduced. A sealing material is arranged in the sealing space, which is sufficiently fluidizable in a first processing state so that a part of the sealing material present in the sealing space can flow into the recess when the end of the hose has been pushed in, and can be hardened in a second processing state.
