Abstract: Spring band clip, removal tool, and method of operating spring band clip. The spring band clip includes an annular curved clip band having a first end portion and a second end portion, which are arranged to form an overlapping region and which are spaced radially from the clip band. A locking device, at least partially integrated in the first end portion, is structured and arranged to lock the clip band in an expanded state.

Abstract: Profiled clamp that includes two half shells, each having a clamping head on a respective first end and a connection geometry on a respective second end. The profiled clamp also includes a clamping element to which the clamping heads are connected and a spring element preloaded to bear against an inside of the half shells. At least one of the two half shells is tiltable with respect to the clamping element.

Abstract: clamp for attaching pipes or lines. The clamp includes a first arm arranged on a base and a second arm arranged on a carriage. The carriage is slidably arranged in the base so that the first and second arms are connectable to one another.

Abstract: Profiled clamp that includes a clamping element, a sealing element having elastically deformable spacers on a radial outside, and a profile band on which the sealing element is held secured against loss. The elastically deformable spacers bear against an inside of the profile band in a non-positive manner.

Abstract: A structural component with a tubular section, particularly a structural component of a fluid line, has at least two materials with different stiffness and/or creeping strength, wherein the materials include thermoplastic synthetic materials and wherein the material having the greater stiffness and/or creeping strength is embedded in the other material.
