To reliably form an effectively functioning burring hole in a steering member. The steering member includes a metal tubular main body extending in a vehicle width direction, wherein a burring hole is formed in a circumference surface of the main body, an edge of the burring hole extrudes inward the main body, and the edge of the burring hole has a droop amount in a circumference direction of the main body and a droop amount in an axis direction of the main body.

A method and a system for producing a ring-shaped member. A punching process is carried out on an axial intermediate part of a first intermediate annular material so as to produce a pair of ring-shaped members. A punching step includes a step in which a first punching process is carried out over a first range of the axial intermediate part in the circumferential direction, and a step in which a second punching process is carried out over a second range of the axially-oriented intermediate part, which is at least partially different than the first range, in the circumferential direction. The first punching process is carried out such that at least one tab is formed. The second punching process is carried out such that at least one separate tab is formed, thereby producing the pair of ring-shaped members.

Stepwise bending in the method for manufacturing a vehicle suspension arm includes a first bending step and a second bending step. In the first bending step, preliminary bending is performed while holding a portion that composes a base portion of a body portion and a portion that composes first coupling portions in a workpiece W by a punch (first punch). In the second bending step, while holding of the portion that composes the first coupling portions by the first punch is released subsequently to the first bending step, bending is performed along a fold given by the first bending step while holding the portion that composes the base portion of the body portion by a punch (second punch).

A drawn and wall ironed beverage can body, method for forming same, and a sealed and filled can, include a through-hole or aperture in the base. A grommet for charging a propellant in can is located in the aperture. The aperture has a burr that is located on the inboard side of the rim of the aperture.

Various implementations include methods and related tools for forming loudspeaker housings. In some implementations, these methods and tools can be used to form a loudspeaker housing having a non-circular shape. One method includes: forming a set of perforations along a first region of a wall of a hollow cylinder of material; and deforming the wall to a non-circular shape after forming the set of perforations.

A punch set for use with a punch tool to punch material from a wall of an electrical box. The punch set has a punch with a cutting section, and a die defining a cavity that is configured to receive the cutting section. The cutting section may have an annular or circular portion and a plurality of keyway forming portions each extending radially from the annular or circular portion. The cutting section of the punch may be insertable into the cavity of the die in a single orientation. The die may have a protrusion receivable within a recess of the punch when the cutting section is received in the cavity. One of the die or punch may have an extension that is receivable in a single orientation within an opening in the other of the die or punch.
