Abstract

A fastening of a tube mounting (10) for a wiper system on a vehicle body has at least one fastening bore (58), extending transversely through a mounting tube (12), into which bore a rubber-elastic coupling element (42) with a hole (56) for a screw is inserted. The contour of the coupling element (42) conforms to the internal contour of the mounting tube (12) in the region of the fastening bore (58), protrudes through openings (60) in the fastening bore (58) by a projecting length (44) and, on the inside, covers the openings (60) axially on both ends.
