A thrust washer () in the form of a semi-circular flanged ring includes at least two radially inward-directed outer connection pieces () on the inner edge of the thrust washer () for the connection with a radial bearing part (), which are located in the circumferential direction on both sides of a contrived centerline (M) of the thrust washer () and in each case have an inner edge () facing the center line (M) and an outer edge () turned away from the centerline (M). The invention also relates to a radio axial bearing with a radial bearing part and a thrust washer of such a type connected with the radial bearing part. The inner edges () in each case include an angle (&#x3b1;), which is 45&#xb0; and 85&#xb0;, with a tangent on the inner side connected in the center of the connection piece () at the semi-circle described by the thrust washer (), in which the outer edge () runs parallel to the respective inner edge (). Such a thrust washer () can be connected with a radial-axial bearing () with a radial bearing part ().
