A wheel bearing includes a roller bearing and a wheel flange is disposed around the bearing. The periphery of the wheel flange is profiled over approximately half its axial width with a peripheral locking receptacle in the form of a polygon or polyhedron shape for receiving a brake disk or brake drum thereon and for transmitting the torque between the brake disk or drum and the wheel flange. In addition, fastening bolts between the brake disk or drum and the wheel flange are received in holes in the wheel flange for holding the brake disk or drum to the wheel flange. But, the torque is transmitted due to the peripheral locking receptacle formed on the wheel flange.

A fastening arrangement for fastening an antifriction bearing in a housing bore. A securing sleeve is disposed at an edge at the outside and toward one axial end of the outer ring of the bearing. The sleeve has beadlike projections that are sprung radially outwardly and that are received in a groove formed in the housing for axially affixing the bearing in the bore. The securing sleeve is axially sprung against the axial end of the outer ring.
