A method of manufacturing a nut integrated with a bracket forms the nut formed integrally with the bracket or a slab base nut by using a plate material supplied between a punch and a die. The slab base nut includes a base plate and a boss extending from the base plate and including female-threads. The base plate and the boss are integrated into a single piece without welding trace.

A method for producing a ball raceway on a workpiece includes providing the workpiece, machining a preliminary thread profile on the workpiece and providing a thread rolling tool. The thread rolling tool has a tool shank, and the tool shank has a free end with a tool head having a roller profile. The method also includes clamping the workpiece into the thread rolling tool, rotating the workpiece about an axis of rotation, moving the tool shank longitudinally along the workpiece, and rolling the roller profile on the preliminary thread profile to generate a final thread profile.

A threaded fastener having a prevailing torque feature and a method for forming same includes a barrel having a longitudinal axis. The barrel has a plurality of internal threads, each internal thread including a forward facing surface and a rearward facing surface. A first angle between the forward facing surface and a first lateral axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis ranges from 20° to 40°. A second angle between the forward facing surface and the rearward facing surface ranges from 80° to 100°.

The present invention provides a looseness-prevention screw thread structure including a screw thread having a predetermined pitch, a no-load flank which is an inclined surface in a direction in which the screw thread is advanced, and a load flank which is an inclined surface in a direction in which the screw thread is retracted, the no-load flank and the load flank being formed at both sides of the screw thread, in which the no-load flank of the screw thread includes: a first tangential portion which abuts against an arc portion formed at a thread crest of an opposing fastening object; and a second tangential portion which has a preset angle with respect to the first tangential portion and abuts against the arc portion.
