Claim:
A profiled rail for being suspended from a constructional component, comprising: two opposite side walls ( 13 ; 33 ) having opposite wall sections ( 14 ; 34 ) respectively; a first connection wall ( 16 ; 36 ) for connecting the two side walls ( 13 ; 33 ) with each other; a first opening ( 17 ; 37 ) formed in the first connection wall ( 16 ; 36 ) for passing therethrough a connection element ( 6 ) that secures the profiled rail on the constructional component, the first opening ( 17 , 37 ) having a first opening width (B; F) measured in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal profile axis ( 12 ) of the profiled rail; a second opening ( 27 , 47 ) located opposite the first opening ( 17 , 37 ) for passing therethrough the connection element ( 6 ) and having a second opening width (C; G) measured in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal profile axis ( 12 ) of the profiled rail, wherein a minimal distance (A, E) between the opposite wall sections ( 14 ; 34 ) of the side walls ( 13 ; 33 ) measured in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal profile axis ( 12 ) of the profiled rail at most corresponds to the opening width of the first and second openings ( 17 , 27 , 37 , 47 ), wherein at least one of the first and second openings ( 17 , 27 ; 37 ) has a collar ( 18 , 28 ; 38 ) extending into the interior of the profiled rail and having a section at least some portions of which abut an inner side of the side walls ( 13 ).
