PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a metal carrier catalytic converter capable of preventing breakage of a honeycomb structure and separation of it from an outside cylinder by securing free thermal expansion of the honeycomb structure and stably fixing itself on the outside cylinder. SOLUTION: This converter is a metal carrier catalytic converter inserting a honeycomb structure in an outside cylinder 30 and fixing them on each other, the outside cylinder 30 and the honeycomb structure 20 are fixed by sinking at least a part of both end outer peripheral parts of the outside cylinder 30 on an outer periphery of the honeycomb structure 20, and a clearance in the axial direction is provided between a sunk part of the outside cylinder 30 and the honeycomb structure 20.
