A connector has a connector body, which connector body includes an annular space which lies between a sleeve-like first casing section and a sleeve-like second casing section of the connector. The first casing section of the connector body is connected to the second casing section at a first end section by a first end wall section. The casing sections are open to one another at a second end section. In the first casing section and in the second casing section at least two passages are formed which are provided for mounting a locking element. In the connector body between the first casing section and the second casing section a reinforcing element is inserted, wherein the reinforcing element is arranged at least in the area of one of the passages.
