A valve cone comprises a cylindrical body extending along a longitudinal axis. The body has a cylindrical surface with at least one, axially extending recess. The recess extends inside a contour line between a first end position at a first end of the cylindrical body and a second end position, which is located between the first end of the body and the opposite second end of the body. The cross-sectional area of the recess, in a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal axis, gradually decreases from a maximum value close to the said first end towards the second end position. A valve cone of the type described above is arranged in a valve. In a method for manufacturing the valve cone, the radial recesses are formed by cutting in a single axial-radial cutting motion.
A valve cone comprising a cylindrical body extending along a longitudinal axis and having a cylindrical surface and at least one, axially extending recess which, inside a contour line, extends between a first end position at a first end of the cylindrical body and a second end position between the first end of the body and the opposite second end of the body, the recess having a radial depth and a width, the recess having a cross-section, in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, the area of which gradually decreases from a maximum value close to said first end towards the second end position, and the body in said cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal axis having a boundary line which is continuously concave towards the recess, characterized in that the portion of the recess which extend from the second end position has a width greater than its depth and, the recess has a longitudinal section, in a plane along the longitudinal axis, in which the boundary line of the body towards the recess has an essentially continuous convex bend.
