A screw connection is formed between steering components, namely a push rod and a fork, in particular of a rear axle steering system. By means of a screw screwed coaxially into one of the two steering components and inserted through an opening in the other steering component, an annular disc-shaped end face of the one steering component is pressed against a likewise annular disc-shaped face of the other steering component. Furthermore, cylindrical mating faces contacting one another are formed by the steering components. In at least one of the two steering components, a transition region is formed between the annular disc-shaped face and the cylindrical mating face, which has at least two different radii of curvature.
