Abstract

A connection element for end areas particularly of ladies' underwear which are to be connected to one another, especially the end areas of the wings of bras, having an eye tape provided with one or more eyes. The eye tape can be connected to a hook tape. The hook tape has two areas lying one on top of another, wherein one or more hooks are fastened at one area, and the edge zones of both areas extending in parallel to the hooks are connected to one another by means of a separating weld seam. The separating weld seams (10) are arranged within the hook tape (2) between the hook-free area (7) of the hook tape and the hook-carrying area (8).
