Abstract
An actuator includes a threaded spindle and an internally threaded component screwed onto the threaded spindle. The component includes a plastic element having a first axial end and a second axial end and an interior having a width and a radially inwardly projecting flange at the first axial end, and the flange has an inner diameter less than the width of the interior. A metal element, such as a nut, is fixedly mounted in the interior of the plastic element, and the internal thread of the nut has a maximum diameter greater than the inner diameter of the flange.
