Abstract

A calking die for calking a component in a receiving bore, in particular for calking a securing flange in a stepped receiving bore of a valve block of a traction-controlled vehicle brake system, having an end face oriented toward the component, which face can be brought at least partially into engagement with a calked volume disposed on an edge of the receiving bore, in order to positively displace at least some of the calked volume in the form of a calked bead from the bore edge toward a face of the component. The end face of the calking die has a peripheral recess, which extends from a diameter defining a radially inner remaining end face to a radially outer circumferential face of the calking die and which is intended for at least partially receiving the calked bead.
