The invention relates to a device (10) for attaching an object (91) to an attachment rail (15), in particular a seat rail in an aircraft or spacecraft (1). The device comprises a base part (21) having a support surface (22) adapted to be placed onto an outer surface (16) of the rail (15), and a locking element (28) adapted to partially protrude from the support surface (22) along a line of protrusion (36). The base part and locking element are coupled or configured to be coupled in such a manner that the locking element can be moved relative to the base part along the line of protrusion (36) and rotated with respect to the base part. An end section (29) of the locking element has a tip portion (30) shaped in a dovetail-type manner. The device comprises a tensioning arrangement (45) for tensioning the locking element with respect to the rail. Furthermore, the invention relates to an arrangement (100) comprising such a device (10) as well as an attachment rail (15) comprising a rail main body (50) and a plurality of bushes (55). Moreover, a method for attaching an object, and a seat rail are proposed. The invention may contribute to attaching the object reliably and rapidly, and may in particular be useful for preventing corrosion of attachment rails in a cost-effective manner.
