Abstract: In a method for producing a threaded connection between a first component and a second component of an injection device for internal combustion engines, which are each provided for carrying high-pressure fluid, an internal thread is formed on a tubular end portion of the first component, into which the second component can be screwed and clamped against a resting surface of the first component, the second component having formed thereon an external threaded portion for engaging the internal thread of the tubular end portion, an outer ring imparting an elastic prestress acting in the radial direction is pressed onto the tubular end portion, and the components are subsequently screwed together.

Abstract: In a method for influencing the thread geometry of an internal thread of a first component of an injection device for internal combustion engines, which is provided for carrying high-pressure fluid, wherein the first component has a tubular end portion and an internal thread is formed on the interior surface of the tubular end portion, and a second component having an exterior surface on at least a portion thereof so as to be received in the tubular end portion of the first component wherein the exterior surface is threaded so said second component can be screwed and clamped against a support surface of the first component, and wherein the tubular end portion on the external side is acted upon by a radial compression force allowing a plastic deformation. The tubular end portion is transformed thereby in such a manner that the internal thread obtains an inner diameter (D) continuously decreasing towards the free end.
