Abstract: A honeycomb body for exhaust gas aftertreatment, having a multiplicity of stacked layers. Flow channels are formed between the layers, which extend along the axial extent of the honeycomb body and are flowed through in the axial direction. The honeycomb body has first structured layers formed by successive wave peaks and wave valleys. Protuberances in the direction of the wave peaks belonging to a respective layer are formed from adjacently arranged wave valleys of a first structured layer. The adjacently arranged protuberances of a first structured layer form a channel-like structure extending in the circumferential direction in the first structured layer into which a second layer is inserted to be is fixed in the axial direction with respect to the first structured layer.
