Abstract

A method for producing a curved tubular connection element has at least the following production steps: machining a linearly extending metal tube piece (10) with a specifiable length while incorporating connection geometries (12, 14) for receiving separate connection parts (18, 20) to connect a media-conducting piping; carrying out a bending process for the tube piece (10) produced by being machined with a specifiable bending radius, preferably up to 90 degrees; and attaching each connection part (18, 20) to the respective connection geometry (12, 14) that can be paired with it.
