Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of pressing a bearing jacket () onto a monolith () of a catalytic converter, in particular in a motor vehicle. The bearing jacket () surrounding the monolith () on the perimeter is pressed during an initial phase onto the monolith () in a first peripheral section () and in a second peripheral section (), whereby the two peripheral sections () together are smaller than the total circumference of the monolith () surrounded by the bearing jacket pressed onto it. The bearing jacket () is pressed onto the monolith () during a subsequent second phase in at least one third peripheral section (), which is situated between the first peripheral section () and the second peripheral section (), whereby the first peripheral section () and the second peripheral section () together with all the third peripheral sections () are the same size as the total circumference.
