In the process for the production of an optical waveguide preform, in which the cladding layer is applied as a tubular powder layer onto a cylindrical glass core rod and is densified by heating, the powder layer has a relative density of approximately 6 percent, which is increased to 25-50 percent during the stabilization process. In order for this process to proceed without damage to the preform, the powder layer is initially heated at a low heating rate. From approximately 150.degree.C, the heating rate is increased until a higher temperature is reached.
