Summary:The flexible metal hose (3) has a corrugated tube (2) and a protective hose (8) made of a metallic mesh. The corrugated tube (2) with the protective hose (8) are held plastically deformed between an external compression ring (4) and an internal compression ring (5). The external compression ring (4) is pressed together inwards in the radial direction and the internal compression ring (5) is expanded. In this way, a force-fit and positive-locking connection of the end fitting is produced, containing the external compression ring (4), an end section of the metallic end tube (2), an end section of the metallic protective hose (8) and the inner compression ring (5). This results in a tubular, rigid layered body which can be connected to a tubular connecting piece (1) in a self-securing manner. This results in cost-effective and time-saving production of the end fittings of flexible metal hoses.
