Abstract

An ultrasonic tool including a first end face and a second end face opposite the first end face. A tool lateral surface connects the first and second end face. The ultrasonic tool is elongate in a longitudinal direction of the tool, wherein at least the first end face is designed as a connection contact surface that is arranged for pressing the ultrasonic tool against a connection component, wherein the ultrasonic tool has an end region having the connection contact surface, which end region extends from the connection contact surface in the longitudinal direction of the tool over 15 mm, but at most one third of a length of the ultrasonic tool, toward the opposite end face, and wherein a pocket-shaped and/or blind-hole-like recess having a recess lateral surface and having a recess floor facing the connection contact surface is formed at the tool lateral surface in the end region.
