A ball circulation mechanism comprises; a through hole 15 which extends in parallel to an axial line 4 of the ball nut 12 inside a thick wall part 14 of the ball nut 12; and adapters 23, 24 having open ends 23a, 24a provided with tongue portions 23c, 24c for scooping up or returning balls 25 between a ball screw groove 11 of a ball shaft 10 and a ball screw groove 13 of the ball nut 12, and the other open ends 23b, 24b being connected to be in communication with the through hole 15, and each adapter being fitted into recesses 16, 17 provided on both axial ends in the thick wall part 14 of the ball nut 12.
