The invention relates to a transmission shaft (1) of a manual transmission having a countershaft design, which transmission shaft forms one of at least two largely identical countershafts and is constructed of a plurality of hollow shaft segments (2; 3; 4; 5) pressure-welded to each other in a butt-jointed manner, of which hollow shaft segments at least two hollow shaft segments (2; 3; 4; 5) are each provided with at least one set of helical teeth (6; 7; 8; 9; 10) of a fixed gear of a helical-gear stage. According to the invention, in order to achieve optimal teeth meshing of the sets of helical teeth (6; 7; 8; 9; 10) with the associated mating gears, the hollow shaft segments (3; 4; 5) having a set of helical teeth (8; 9; 10) are each connected to the adjacent hollow shaft segment (2; 3; 4) in such a way that said hollow shaft segments are rotated about the center axis (19) of said hollow shaft segments by a correction angle (Δα) in proportion to a deviation (Δx) from the desired axial position of said hollow shafts segments, wherein the ratio between the correction angle (Δα) and the axial deviation (Δx) corresponds to the pitch (s) of the set of helical teeth (8; 9; 10) (Δα/Δx = s).
