A profile clamp with a clamp band and an annular ring element with a ring body is provided. The clamp band has two clamping heads which are connected to one another via a clamping element. The ring element includes at least one first latching tab, which is arranged projecting from the ring body in the axial direction of the profile clamp and projecting out of the profile clamp at least in some sections. The first latching tab has a first latching portion and a free-swinging portion extending opposite thereto. The first latching portion is designed to exert a force, and the first latching portion has a first contact edge that is designed to create a point contact or a line contact with a flange of the pipe end.
