Abstract

For the formation of a thread withdrawal nozzle for an open-end spinning apparatus which possesses a spin rotor, a thread contact surface (32) of the nozzle is provided with projections (36), which projections close at an obtuse angle (&agr;) with the thread contact surface (32). Thereby, a satisfactory twist propagation is obtained to the fiber entwinement point, so that, in this manner, a softer thread can be produced. Advantageously, the thread is not roughened by this treatment.
