A gas bag is attached to an accommodating housing of a gas bag restraining system for vehicles on the front passenger side thereof. The gas bag is provided along the edge of its rectangular inflation opening with a sewn-in reinforcing element forming a bead. The edge provided with the reinforcing element is fixed to the accommodating housing with an interference fit by means of a profile element. The attachment provides high mechanical strength along with an improved gas tightness.
