Abstract
It is an object of the invention to provide a wheel bearing having a hub which can be worked without requiring different jigs and the like depending on the position to be worked, in which it is not required to dispose a dog or the like, and which is reduced in weight. In a wheel bearing comprising a hub which is to be fixed to the side of a wheel, and an outer race which is to be fixed to the side of a vehicle body, a noncircular hole is formed in a center area of an inner side of an annular portion which is formed in the vicinity of the root of the flange of the hub which constitutes the wheel bearing, and in a side opposite to the shaft body in the axial direction.
