A two-piece, one-sided-installation fastener system may have an internally-threaded sleeve having a shank and a sleeve head. The fastener system may include an externally-threaded core bolt having a frangible driving provision and a core bolt head.

A method of manufacturing an exhaust gas carrying device, in particular an exhaust gas purification device, and a tool provided therefor include segment-like jaws that are used to deforma an outer housing. The jaws have indentations or projections adjacent to each other, and which are complementary to form a continuously surrounding indentation/projection. The reshaped outer housing is provided with one or more surrounding projections or indentations by the deformation.

A method for manufacturing a pressing tool includes shaping a blank, which is able to be hardened, at least in part, to a final size of a pressing jaw. Then, a laser beam is applied to at least one selected region of a surface of the pressing jaw so as to form at least one hardened surface layer.
