Abstract
A motor vehicle wheel hub bearing comprises an outer race to be mounted in a cylindrical seat formed in a suspension strut and fixed in the seat by cold rolling. The outer race has an outer cylindrical surface to be fitted into the seat. The cylindrical surface extends over the whole axial dimension of the outer race and has a greater axial dimension than that of the strut. The two axially opposite ends of the cylindrical surface comprise respective axial tubular projections adapted to be deformed radially outwardly by cold forming towards respective opposite lateral surfaces of the strut so as to fix the bearing to the strut.
