Abstract
A bearing unit consists of a radial bearing 1 and an axial bearing 2, the outer ring 3 of the radial bearing 1 being extended at one end in the axial direction to hold the axial bearing 2. So that the bearing unit is able to absorb large radial and axial forces and is reliably sealed off against contamination from the outside, the outer ring 3 of the radial bearing 1 consists of a solid piece of material, and the extension 3.sup.a of the outer ring 3 is provided, starting from the end surface 4, with a bore 4.sup.a to hold the axial bearing 2, this bore being sealed by a bearing housing cover 6, which rests against the end surface 2.sup.a of the axial bearing 2 and is connected to the outer ring 3.
