The present invention relates to a process of producing a boom part from a sheet metal blank, in particular a process of producing a boom part having a bearing seat, in which the starting material is merely formed by bending. Thus, the production process is simplified. In addition, the present invention relates to a process of producing a boom that is closed at both ends by joining two boom parts produced by means of the process of the present invention. Furthermore, the present invention comprises boom parts and booms which are produced by means of one of the processes according to the present invention.

A hydraulic valve brake for a hydraulic valve drive of an internal combustion engine is provided. The valve brake includes a housing with a housing wall and with a housing base, and includes a piston which moves axially in the housing and one end side of which, together with the housing wall and the housing base, delimits a hydraulic pressure chamber and the other end side of which actuates a gas exchange valve. The housing wall is perforated in the region of the pressure chamber by one or more overflow openings, the opening cross sections of which are controlled by a control edge, which delimits the end side at the pressure chamber side, of the piston. In this case, it is the intention for the axial distance (h) between the control edge of the piston, when the latter is fully retracted into the housing, and the housing base to be set by a spacer of predetermined thickness (d).
