Abstract: The present invention relates to a screw for an extrusion molding machine and an injection molding machine that is adapted to be inserted into a cylinder to convey a molding material injected from a hopper and heated to a molten state by means of a heater, and more particularly, to a screw that includes a wide width spiral portion (15) formed on the frontmost end periphery of a spiral portion (12) of a screw shaft in such a manner as to have a spiral blade having a wide width to prevent shaking and to reduce friction and abrasion against the inner peripheral wall of the cylinder to ensure a longer term operation than the conventional screw.
