Abstract
A gripping strip for prefilled disposable syringes having a syringe cylinder. The gripping strip has a gripping strip element formed as a separate synthetic plastic part fixedly mountable on the syringe cylinder, a plate-shaped abutment provided on the gripping strip element and having a hollow cylindrical receptacle with an outer diameter which is adapted to be smaller than an inner diameter of the syringe cylinder, arresting elements provided in a region of an outer surface of the gripping strip element for mounting with the syringe cylinder in a complimentary inner undercut of the syringe cylinder, a safety ring insertable in an interior of the receptacle for maintaining a working connection, the safety ring being connected with the interior of the receptacle of one piece through locations of desired breakage in an unsecured position, so that during placing the syringe cylinder over the receptacle it is displaceable into a securing position. The receptacle has an outer surface which is formed of peripheral portions with gaps therebetween, the arresting elements being arranged in the gaps for a form-locking operative connection with the inner undercut of the syringe cylinder.
