Abstract: An outer joint part for a constant velocity universal ball joint, produced from a tubular member formed from a plate metal part and provided with substantially longitudinally extending ball tracks intended for receiving torque transmitting balls, with an axial central portion of the tubular member is reduced in cross-section relative to two axial end regions and is provided with ball tracks, with a substantially radial flange formed on at one axial end of the tubular member, with the center lines of the ball tracks extending in a non-parallel way relative to the axis A of the outer joint part and with the axial end of the tubular member positioned opposite the flange remaining undeformed.
