A dispensing device comprises at least one manually actuatable operating element, an adapter for a cement cartridge, and a clamping rod that can be propelled in the direction of the adapter, whereby at least one propulsion body is arranged to be touching against the clamping rod, whereby the at least one propulsion body comprises multiple elastic spring tongues. The spring tongues each comprise a cutting edge, whereby the spring tongues touch against the clamping rod by means of the cutting edge, and whereby the spring tongues of the propulsion body are inclined appropriately with respect to the clamping rod such that, upon a motion of the propulsion body in the propulsion direction of the clamping rod, the cutting edges of the propulsion body engage the clamping rod. A spring element pushes with an elastic force, at least for part of the time, onto the at least one propulsion body opposite to the propulsion direction of the clamping rod, whereby a force can be exerted on the at least one propulsion body in the propulsion direction of the clamping rod by means of the operating element, whereby a securing element, against which the propulsion body is supported such as to be mobile, touches against the clamping rod, whereby the securing element comprises multiple elastic spring tongues. The spring tongues each comprise a cutting edge, whereby the spring tongues touch against the clamping rod by means of the cutting edge, and whereby the spring tongues are inclined appropriately with respect to the clamping rod such that, upon a motion of the clamping rod opposite to the propulsion direction, the cutting edges of the securing element engage the clamping rod.
