Abstract: A hollow filter element of a fluid filter has a coupling device for connecting with a first housing part of the filter housing when removing the hollow filter element from the second housing part. The coupling device is arranged at an axial end face opening of the hollow filter element. The hollow filter element can be joined by a rotation/insertion movement with the first or second housing part. The coupling device has guiding and entraining elements arranged circumferentially. A holding element extends circumferentially at the side of the guiding and entraining elements facing axially the outer side of the hollow filter element. Coupling elements for transmitting an axial pulling force can hook behind the holding element. The guiding and entraining elements are covered by the holding element radially inwardly and are connected force-transmittingly to the holding element so that the latter can be elastically stretched radially by them.
