Abstract: In a sealing apparatus (1a) for an expansion joint (2) between two structure bodies (4) with a flexible bridging unit (13a) and two anchoring units (8a) which are arranged on opposite sides of the expansion joint (2) and each comprises an integral flange (9a) which can be connected with the associated structure body and a lapped flange (10a) which can be secured by a clamping element (11a) to the integral flange (9a) in the manner of a dovetail connection, with the bridging unit being connectable with the anchoring units in such way that it is clamped between the integral flange (9a) and the lapped flange. The clamping element (11a) substantially has the same strength as the integral flange (9a).
