Abstract

A connector arrangement for connecting web ends (5), in particular an endless filter web, comprises two elongate elements which each have at least one elongate leg (1, 2) for fastening on one of the web ends (5), and a longitudinal flank (9) directed away from the web end (5). In a first longitudinal-section plane the longitudinal flank (9) has a first periodic contour, which engages in a corresponding contour of the other element respectively. In a second and third cross-section plane extending parallel to the first longitudinal-section plane, the elements each have second and third periodic contours (10, 11), which engage in a form-fitting manner in respectively corresponding contours (10, 11) of the other element respectively. The first to third contours form a groove (13, 13′) and a tongue (12) in at least one cross-section plane.
