Abstract: A second part extending around a first part in a plugged-together state. The second part has snap-in element with an inwardly protruding projection for meshing with a complementary recess on an outer surface of the first part to hold the second part fixed in the axial direction on the first part. Both parts have a central passage opening. One part has an end area expanding towards the outlet opening in a connection area, and the other part is connected to an elastic section, arranged in its interior. The front end of the elastic section is pressed into contact with the expanded end area of the opposite part. The projection of the snap-in element maintains the first and second parts meshed together, so that the elastic section exerts a sealing function due to the pressure on the expanding end area.
