A stator assembly for a progressive cavity pump or a progressive cavity motor includes connectors for connecting functional elements and at least one stator, the stator including an outer pipe as well as a lining subject to wear which is disposed inside the outer pipe, the at least one stator being disposed between the connectors such that a cavity extending across the entire stator assembly for housing a rotor is created. Between at least one of the connectors and at least one stator adjacent thereto and/or between adjacent stators an adhesion region is provided, whereby in the adhesion region an adhesive is disposed in such a way that between the at least one connector and the at least one stator adjacent thereto and/or between said respectively adjacent stators a substance-to-substance connection is created.
