The screw has two or three non-circular super-imposed recesses. The depth of each recess is less than 1.2 mm and there is a less than 1° of draw in each recess. The screw head recess is formed using a punch (10) in a cold-heading process. The punch is formed in a profilating CNC machine, cutting the profiles (12, 14, 16) of the punch to a tolerance of better than ±0.025 mm. A method of manufacture of a cold-forming punch for such a screw comprises providing a profilating head as one of the tools on a turret mounted adjacent the chuck in the CNC machine. The profilating head has several cutting elements, each being adjustable with respect to one another: axially, radially and angularly.
