In order to provide a manufacturing process for a wheel nut wrench in which strength of a nut socket portion is increased even though the process is facilitated under a situation where a tube made of carbon steel such as S45C is used as a material, the process includes the steps of: using a tube-shaped steel tube, forming a nut socket shell portion having a cross section of a hexagonal shape at an end portion thereof by cold pressing, pressing a sleeve made by a belt-shaped steel plate being bent and having a cross section of a hexagonal shape into the nut socket shell portion, and unifying a nut socket portion with the sleeve by plastic deforming.
