The present invention relates to a nickel-based self-fluxing alloy, a glass manufacturing member, a mold, and a glass gob transporting member having an improved slipperiness against a glass gob. A nickel-based self-fluxing alloy used in a glass manufacturing member for transporting or molding glass with a viscosity of log η=3 to 14.6, comprises: boron (B) in an amount of ranging from 0 percent to 1.5 percent by mass; hard particles; and silicon (Si). Preferably, the amount of boron (B) ranges from 0 percent to less than 1.0 percent by mass. Preferably, the hard particles contain at least one of a carbide, a nitrides, an oxide and a cermet. Preferably, the nickel-based self-fluxing alloy comprises at least one metal selected from Group 4, 5 and 6 elements in an amount of ranging from 0 percent to 30 percent by mass.
