Abstract
A cage for roller bodies, for example axial bearings or flat guides, which is approximately W-shaped in the longitudinal cross-section, having side walls forming W-shaped limbs and webs connecting them, between which the roller bodies are accommodated. The profile of the webs is suitable for limiting the freedom of movement of the roller bodies to at least two degrees of freedom. Furthermore, the profile of the webs is designed such that the freedom of movement of the roller bodies can be limited in at least one additional degree of freedom.
