The invention relates to a method for the sterile connection of pipes, consisting of the following steps: a) a first and a second pipe (1a, 1b) is provided； b) a separating area of the first and second pipes (1a, b) is heated using heating means； c) both pipes (1a, 1b) are mechanically separated by exerting traction and/or shear force onto the pipes so that both pipes (1a, 1b) are respectively separated in the heated separating area in a first and a second pipe section (100a, 100b, 101a, 101b)； and d) after the pipes (1a, 1b) are separated, a mechanical contact between the end (1001a) of the first pipe section (100a) of the first pipe (1a) formed by the separation of the first pipe is established with the end (1001b) of the first pipe section (100b) of the second pipe (100b), formed by the separation of the second pipe (1b), and e) mechanical contact is established such that the ends (1001a, 1001b) of the pipe sections (100a, 100b) still have, following the heating according to step b) when they come into mechanical contact with each other, a temperature such that they form a material fit connection without additional heating after separation. The invention also relates to a device for the sterile connection of pipes.La invención se refiere a un método para la conexión estéril de tubos, que consiste en los siguientes pasos: a) un primer y segundo tubo (1a, 1b) está provisto； b) un área de separación del primer y segundo tubos (1a, 1b) se calienta usando medios de calentamiento； c) ambos tubos (1a, 1b) están separados mecánicamente al ejercer fuerza de tracción y/o de esfuerzo cortante en los tubos para que ambos tubos (1a, 1b) estén respectivamente separados en el área de separación calentada en una primera y segunda sección de tubo (100a, 100b, 101a, 101b) después de que los tubos (1a, 1b) se separan, se establece un contacto mecánico entre el extremo (101a) de la primera sección de tubo (100a) del primer tubo (1a) formado por la separación del primer tubo con el e
