A filling adapter for a container to be filled with media, in particular for the filling of containers on assembly lines for the production of motor vehicles where the filling adapter is equipped with a hose packet, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic lines. A filling adapter according to the disclosure achieves better fluid flow properties while reducing the overall size, production costs, and weight of the filling adapter. The filling adapter is equipped with a coaxial valve in the region of the adapter head of the filling adapter, which coaxial valve, starting from the inlet cross section, is initially provided with a flow contour extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the valve, which in the further flow course transitions into a flow contour extending at a right angle to the longitudinal axis of the valve to the outlet cross section.
