A connection arrangement comprising - two clamp tying coupling ends such as pipe ends, flanges, or the like, and a clamp tie for docking the coupling ends, wherein - the clamp tie comprises at least one flexible tie member having a closure end and a free end to be brought into connection with the closure end, said tie member being closable in a stepped latching, or continuous manner about an axis, wherein - a clamp tied means comprises the two clamp tying coupling ends and extends radially within the tie member in the direction of the axis; - the tie member has, following one another from top to bottom in the axial direction, o an upper narrow side (14 1); o radially inwardly, a clamping side having clamp teeth projecting toward the flanges and with at least two elevated portions (32, 34); and o a lower narrow side (14 2) of the tie member, wherein - a closing side is arranged in parallel with and further radially outwardly with respect to the clamping side; - the closing side of the tie member is disposed to operate mechanically interactively with the closure end during a closing procedure; and - the clamping side has the elevated portions (32, 34) that are spaced apart axially from one another over the length of the tie member at at least two peripheral points facing the clamp tied means and that are directed radially inwardly, with a clamping region being formed between each cooperating elevated portion assembly, characterized in that - at least two of the elevated portions (32, 34) of the respective cooperating elevated portion assembly are formed as mutually converging limbs having at least one clamping flank tapering at least sectionally toward the tie member to introduce force continuously into the clamp tied means during the closing procedure and thereafter; and in that - the clamp tie is adaptable to a plurality of diameters of the clamped tie means, with the clamp tie having radially inner sections forming the clamping side for the adaptation that are separable at predetermined breaking points, with a predetermined breaking point being respectively arranged between two clamping teeth arranged adjacent to one another. - two clamp tying coupling ends such as pipe ends, flanges, or the like, and a clamp tie for docking the coupling ends, wherein - the clamp tie comprises at least one flexible tie member having a closure end and a free end to be brought into connection with the closure end, said tie member being closable in a stepped latching, or continuous manner about an axis, wherein - a clamp tied means comprises the two clamp tying coupling ends and extends radially within the tie member in the direction of the axis; - the tie member has, following one another from top to bottom in the axial direction, o an upper narrow side (14 1); o radially inwardly, a clamping side having clamp teeth projecting toward the flanges and with at least two elevated portions (32, 34); and o a lower narrow side (14 2) of the tie member, wherein o an upper narrow side (14 1); o radially inwardly, a clamping side having clamp teeth projecting toward the flanges and with at least two elevated portions (32, 34); and o a lower narrow side (14 2) of the tie member, - a closing side is arranged in parallel with and further radially outwardly with respect to the clamping side; - the closing side of the tie member is disposed to operate mechanically interactively with the closure end during a closing procedure; and - the clamping side has the elevated portions (32, 34) that are spaced apart axially from one another over the length of the tie member at at least two peripheral points facing the clamp tied means and that are directed radially inwardly, with a clamping region being formed between each cooperating elevated portion assembly, - at least two of the elevated portions (32, 34) of the respective cooperating elevated portion assembly are formed as mutually converging limbs having at least one clamping flank tapering at least sectionally toward the tie member to introduce force continuously into the clamp tied means during the closing procedure and thereafter; and in that - the clamp tie is adaptable to a plurality of diameters of the clamped tie means, with the clamp tie having radially inner sections forming the clamping side for the adaptation that are separable at predetermined breaking points, with a predetermined breaking point being respectively arranged between two clamping teeth arranged adjacent to one another.
