Tube connection securing clip

In a tube connection, an axial end region of a first tube is inserted into an axial end region of a second tube having an internal diameter greater than the external diameter of the first tube. Elastic sealing elements are disposed between the outside of the inserted end region and the inside of the receiving end region. A safety clip which holds the tubes in place in the axial direction is at the same time so formed that misalignment of the tubes in the region of the tube connection is prevented. The safety clip has first and second contact regions, in the form of clamps, which are provided for preferably area contact with the outsides of the end regions of the tubes to be connected. The contact regions each extend over an axial length such that when the safety clip is in the clamped position the tubes are held in the region of the tube connection non-tiltably in a mutually axially aligned position.
