Abstract: The invention relates to a method for joining a first and second planar part each having an outer surface and an inner surface, wherein in a first step a lowered area is provided at two joining regions of the planar parts, which joining regions face each other, wherein the lowered areas are shaped in such a way that the level of the outer surface in the region of said lowered areas lies below the level of the outer surface of the adjacent regions of the planar parts; wherein in a further step the two planar parts are positioned in relation to each other, while an adhesive is used, in such a way that the two lowered areas form a recess, wherein either one joining region overlaps the other joining region and the adhesive is provided directly between the overlapping joining regions or a joining aid is used, which at least partially overlaps the joining regions of the planar parts, wherein the adhesive is provided between each joining region of the two planar parts and the joining aid; wherein in a further step a

Abstract: An assembly for a dispenser includes a front plate having a first tube aperture configured for securably receiving a tube within the aperture, the tube being configured to receive a container having a flowable material; a release assembly disposed on the front plate having first and second members hingingly movable about a hinge portion on each of the first and second members for partially covering the first tube aperture when the first and second members are in a closed position and for uncovering the aperture when the first and second members are in an open position. A combination includes a dispenser and the assembly releasably secured to the discharge gun. A kit includes a container having a flowable material; the dispenser having plunger; and the assembly releasably secured to the discharge gun.
