Zusammenfassung:A tank filler neck for a motor vehicle including a tube having an outer tube portion and an inner tube portion, a barrier layer embedded between the outer tube portion and an inner tube portion, the barrier layer having a thickness at a first region thereof that is greater than a thickness than remaining regions thereof, and a seal arranged to directly contact the barrier layer at the first region. In that way, the barrier layer is to inhibit diffusion of hydrocarbons through the tube at a first region more than the remaining portion(s) the plastic tube.
