# Fastening element comprising sensor arranged in a tapering section and protected by means of a protective device

## Abstract

A fastening element (100), comprising a shaft section (102), an anchoring end (104) at a first end of the shaft section (102) for anchoring in an anchoring base, an outer end (106), at an opposite second end of the shaft section (102), which is to be located on an outer side of the anchoring base when it is anchored in the anchoring base, a radially tapered tapering section (108) of the shaft section (102) axially between the anchoring end (104) and the outer end (106), a sensor (110) located at least partially in the tapering section (108) for detecting anchoring data of the fastening element (100) in the anchoring base, and a protective device (112) for protecting the sensor (110).
