Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3162972A1] The object of the invention is a metal connector, a system and a method for connecting the metal connector to a metal profile. The metal connector, the system and the method for connecting is used in the construction industry. It serves, e.g., to attach and/or seal the ends of metal profiles, to connect two or more metal profiles with the provision of tightness of the connection between the metal connector and the metal profile. A metal connector (2) for connecting to a metal profile (1), wherein the metal connector (2) has a body (11) comprising at least one wall (7) for connecting to the metal profile (1) and a chamber (5) located in the body (11), the chamber having at least one hole (6) located in a wall of the chamber (5), wherein the hole (6) lies in the plane of the wall (7), characterised in that in the chamber (5), there is a previously- hardened elastic sealing material (3), wherein the previously- hardened elastic sealing material (3) protrudes from the chamber (5) through the hole (6), out of the body (11), thereby forming a sealing part (9), and the chamber (5) and the hole (6) have the shape allowing the sealing part (9) to be pressed into the chamber (6) through the hole (6).
