1. A clamp for securing a tubular object, having a clamp band, the clamp band being a flat metal sheet, the clamp band having ends, wherein on the ends of the clamp band an outwardly protruding securing member is provided in each case, and the clamp having a rubber profile which is arranged on a radial inner face of the clamp band and which at least partially engages around edges of the clamp band with a lip, wherein on the radial inner face of the clamp band at least a first retention geometry is provided and on a radial outer face of the rubber profile, at least a second retention geometry is provided, wherein the first and the second retention geometries are in engagement with each other in a radial direction (R), wherein the first retention geometry has at least one radial indentation which is provided in the radial inner face of the clamp band and the second retention geometry has at least one radial projection which is provided on the radial outer face of the rubber profile, wherein the at least one radial projection engages in the at least one radial indentation, and wherein the at least one radial projection is a plurality of radial projections which are offset in a peripheral direction (U), wherein in an axial direction between the edges of the clamp band and the rubber profile an air gap is formed.
