Abstract: The invention relates to a device (100) for smoothing and/or floating and/or spreading filler compounds or plaster compounds, comprising a smoothing and/or filler plate (1) and a handle (2) connected to the smoothing and/or filler plate (1), wherein the smoothing and/or filler plate (1) has a working surface and a fastening side (4) lying opposite the working surface for the handle. The aim of the invention is that handle and trowel plate are at least partially glued together by an intermediate element, which should confer a long service life to the device. This is achieved in that the smoothing and/or filler plate (1) is glued to the handle by means of an intermediate element with the aid of an adhesive (11), wherein a sealing (12) is arranged between the intermediate element and the smoothing and/or filler plate (1).

Abstract: A device (1) for smoothing filling or plaster compounds and/or for spreading them by rubbing, comprising a smoothing plate (2) with a smoothing side (3) and a fastening side (4), a handle (5) and a holding element (6) which connects the handle (5) and the smoothing plate (2) on the fastening side (4), wherein the holding element (6) has a fastening flange (7) for fastening the smoothing plate (2), and a handle-fastening section (8), is intended to be improved in such a way that the handle is connected to the smoothing plate in a particularly stable manner without the weight of the device and the manufacturing costs being substantially increased. This is achieved in that the fastening flange (7) has a multiplicity of holes (9) into each of which there protrude fastening bolts (10) which project on the smoothing plate (2), said fastening bolts being fixedly connected to the smoothing plate (2) on the one hand and being connected to the fastening flange (7) by means of a pressed connection on the other hand.
