    Abstract: Device and connector tube for coating a pipe or portion of a pipe, which has an outer surface determined by the outer circumference of the pipe or portion of a pipe. The device includes a moving device, which can rotate around the outer surface of the pipe or portion of a pipe, and a coating nozzle, which is connected to a molten-polymer source in order to form a polymer film, which nozzle is attached to the device, which can rotate around the pipe. The feed tube forms at least part of the molten polymer's feed route from the source to the coating nozzle, which feed tube includes at least two rigid tubes and at least one connector, which includes at least two connector parts for connection to the tube and a bearing arrangement fitted between the connector parts, which permits the connector parts to rotate around their common longitudinal axis and keeps the connector parts parallel to each other.
