Abstract

The closure strip (1) fits in a profiled mounting section formed as a U-shaped socket for a holding element such as a plate (4) which engages in the U-shaped recess (3) of the socket. One U-arm is formed on the top of the holding element as a double arm (5) with insert groove (6) so that the closure strip can be pushed into the groove with insert tongue (7) forming tongued and groove connection. The width of the U-shaped recess of the socket and the thickness of the holding element can be matched with each other to form a clamping fit. The recess tapers conically to the opening.
