<p>A process to produce a ceramic tube for a metallic halide lamp, comprising the steps of forming an integrally molded body (1) composed of an electrode member-inserting portion (1a) and an annular portion (1b) located around an outer periphery of the electrode member-inserting portion, inserting the annular portion of the integrally molded body into an open end portion of a molded cylindrical tubular body (3) in a state that each of the integrally molded body and the molded tubular body is used as molded or after being calcined, thereby forming an assembled body, and firing the assembled body, thereby forming an integrally fired body composed of the electrode member-inserting portion and the annular portion. The annular portion and the tubular body are sintered to each other by firing in a state that radial press fitting forces act between the annular portion and the tubular body.</p> |
