Abstract
The proposed wheel bearing has a hub 1 mounted on the preferably integral bearing shaft 4 of a wheel part 5. The hub 1 rotates on a ball bearing arrangement 2. The ball bearing inner ring or rings 3 are stressed via a washer 10 against a shoulder 6 on the bearing shaft 4. In order that the bearing shaft 4 can take greater operational forces the bearing shaft 4 has an axial bore 7, which accommodates a draw bolt 8 screwed into a plastics sleeve 13 so as to prestress the inner ring or rings 3. In this way the securing of the assembly avoids tensile stress in the shaft 4.
