A strain wave gearing includes an internally toothed gear integrated with an inner ring. A bolt hole is formed in the internally toothed gear. The bolt hole includes a bolt passage hole part, and a screw hole part extending in the direction of an axial line, continuously from the bolt passage hole part. The screw hole part, to which a bolt-fastening force is applied, is formed at a location away in the direction of the axial line from a location adjacent to a radially outer side of an internally toothed gear. Deformation, occurring during fastening of a bolt, at a portion in which the internally toothed gear is formed can be reduced, and adverse effects caused by the deformation such as a decrease in the accuracy of engagement or meshing of the internally toothed gear and an externally toothed gear can be inhibited.
