Abstract
A honeycomb body, especially a catalyst carrier body with a preferably round, oval or elliptical cross section, includes a jacket tube and a stack of at least partly structured sheet-metal layers being intertwined in different directions in the jacket tube. The stack has a given length dimension and a given width dimension. At least one of the sheet-metal layers has a greater thickness over at least part of at least one of the given dimensions than others of the layers. The at least one sheet-metal layer having a greater thickness is formed of thicker sheet metal than the others of the layers or it is formed of a plurality of identically structured metal sheets resting closely against one another.
