A rotary electric rotor includes a rotor core having a shaft through-hole; a rotor shaft having a male screw portion on its first side; a washer having an annular structure with cutouts elastically deformable in a radial direction, having a washer tapered surface, and having an annular projection portion that extends in an axial direction from an end surface and is fixed to the rotor core in a state of being disposed in a gap between an inner circumferential surface of the shaft through-hole and an outer circumferential surface of the rotor shaft and pressing the inner circumferential surface of the shaft through-hole, the end surface and the washer tapered surface are opposite surfaces of the washer; and a nut having a female screw portion that meshes with the male screw portion and having a nut tapered surface that faces the washer tapered surface.
