Abstract
In an edge connection for the panes (1, 2) of a compound glass element there is provided a spacing profile (3) which preferably consists of a poorly heat-conductive plastic material. This is adhered between the panes with a contact adhesive (4). As a vapour-barrier, a band (5) of a thin flat metal foil is applied around the exterior of the spacing profile. The outer surface (3.1) of the spacing profile is inwardly offset with respect to the flat metal band in the edge regions adjacent the panes, in such a way that peripherally running chambers (6) are created. These chambers are filled with a vapour-proof adhesive, preferably butyl-adhesive.
