Abstract
A component of an exhaust system, in particular of an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, has a double-walled pipe which encloses at least one air gap. The double-walled pipe includes at least two layers positioned radially over each other and attached to each other at a plurality of fixing points distributed over a periphery. At least one of the layers is a structured layer and has a wave structure with a plurality of wave crests and wave troughs distributed along the periphery. For manufacturing the component, at least one sheet metal strip is provided, which is structured in sections to give it a wave form. A brazing material is applied at the intended fixing points. The sheet metal strip is then wound up to form the double-walled pipe. The latter is calibrated, and the layers are connected at the fixing points by induction brazing.
