Abstract

A wheel bearing apparatus has an outer member with a body mounting flange to be mounted on a knuckle that forms part of a suspension apparatus. An inner member includes a wheel hub and at least one inner ring. The inner ring is press fit onto a cylindrical portion of the wheel hub. Double row rolling elements are contained between double row inner raceway surfaces and double row outer raceway surfaces, respectively, of the inner member and the outer member. The outer member is adapted to be fastened to the knuckle through securing bolts. A vibration damping member is interposed between opposite surfaces of the body mounting flange of the outer member and the knuckle.
