In the double row ball bearing, a plurality of balls are incorporated into a space between a first inner race raceway of an inner race and a first outer race raceway of an outer race, a plurality of balls are incorporated into a space between a second inner race raceway of the inner race and a second outer race raceway of the outer race, there is formed a counterbore portion at least in the outer race raceway of a pair of one-row side inner and outer race raceways, and the balls are incorporated in a maximum manner into a space between the pair of inner and outer race raceways which are so arranged as to include the outer race with the counterbore portion formed therein, to thereby make it possible to provide a double row ball bearing in which the rated load of one-row side raceway thereof can be selected up to its maximum with respect to the outside diameter dimension of an outer race thereof, and an excellent fatigue life can be attained.
