A pipe joint, includes a press fitting with a section that is beaded in cross-section and holds a sealing ring and with a cylindrical area attached thereto that has, at the end of its extension, a flange-like depression forming a stop. The pipe joint also includes a pipe, whose smooth end, after being inserted into the press fitting, comes to rest on the inner stop of the press fitting. A non-detachable, tight pipe joint is formed by means of a pressing tool having at least two pressing jaws encompassing the press fitting after the pressing jaws are closed. During pressing, the pressing jaws act both on the annular bead, including the sealing ring placed therein, and on the cylindrical area of the press fitting. A clamping means that largely prevents the axial displacement of the inserted pipe and whose internal diameter in the non-stressed state is smaller than the smallest external diameter of the inserted pipe permitted by tolerances is arranged in the insertion area for the pipe in the press fitting outside the action area of the pressing jaws.
