A tubular component is for a pipe system. The tubular component comprises an external shell and an internal wear element which is attached to the inner jacket surface of the shell by a bonding mass in a first annular space formed between the outer jacket surface of the wear element and the inner jacket surface of the shell, the bonding mass being constituted by a hyperelastic bonding mass. A method is for attaching the wear element to the tubular component. Use of a hyperelastic bonding mass is for such attaching.
