An object of the present invention is to provide a ball screw having a structure in which a screw shaft and a nut satisfy required performance and having improved durability, a method for manufacturing the ball screw, a power steering device, and a method for manufacturing the power steering device.A ball screw according to the present invention includes: a nut made of a steel substrate having an inner peripheral surface on which a female screw is formed; a screw shaft that is combined with the nut and is made of a steel substrate having an outer peripheral surface on which a male screw facing the female screw is formed; and a plurality of balls arranged between the female screw and the male screw. A surface of the nut in contact with the ball and a surface of the screw shaft in contact with the ball each have carburized layers. A carbon concentration in the carburized layer of the nut is higher than a carbon concentration in the carburized layer of the screw shaft.
