The invention relates to a compensation element for joining components made of fusible plastics, designed as a hollow cylinder, at least some sections of which are conical and having at least one heating element which when supplied with energy heats at least some regions of the inner surface or the outer surface of the compensation element or of both surfaces to produce a welded connection between the components. Said compensation element is characterized in that cuts are provided, starting from each outer edge of the hollow body, at least one section of the cuts extending up to or beyond a plane of the compensation element that guarantees flexibility. The invention also relates to methods in which a sleeve consisting of an outer sheath and at least one compensation element is used.
