Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a connection means for providing a positive and/or non-positive connection between at least two connection partners, wherein the connection means has at least a first region which engages with the first connection partner via a positive and/or non-positive engagement, and at least a second region is provided which engages with the at least second connection partner via a positive and/or non-positive engagement. The object of making available a connection means by which a non-positive and/or positive connection can be provided between at least two connection partners in a simple manner and cost-effectively and which meets high safety requirements is achieved in that at least the second region of the connection means has a region formed from a material which is flat at least in certain regions and which consists of an Fe alloy with shape memory properties, which region, during activation, ensures the positive and/or non-positive engagement with the second connection partner as a result of a change in shape.
