The present invention relates to a plug-type connection for releasably connecting two bodies wherein the first body includes a first connection zone having a plurality of coaxially aligned first connection segments and the second body includes a plurality of coaxially aligned second connection segments. The first connection segment includes at least one segment with a non-circular cross-section and at least one segment having an axially tapering cross-section. The second connection segment includes at least one segment with a non-circular cross section sized and configured for rotatively engaging the non-circular cross section of the first connection segment and at least one segment sized and configured to mate with the at least one tapering section, wherein the tapered section of the first connection segment and the mating section of the second connection segment form an axially non-positive engagement for guiding the first body into engagement with the second body. The axially tapering cross- section of the first connection segment is preferably made from a deformable material so that the axially tapering cross section deforms when it mates with the second connection segment.
