Abstract

A device for connecting a pipe socket, a tubular mounting part or a fitting (3) to a pipe (10), especially a water pipe. The inventive device comprises a connecting part (7). A first end (7a) of the connecting part is to be connected to a pipe (10) by a press connection, and a second end (7b) of the connecting part is to be connected to the pipe socket, mounting part or fitting (3). The second end (7b) of the connecting part (7) forms a plug-connection with a receiving part (4) of the pipe socket, the tubular mounting part or the fitting (3). After the press-connection is provided, the connecting part (7) is merely plugged in to connect a pipe (10), for example, to a mounting part.
