Abstract
This motor vehicle suspension stop comprises a first ring, a second ring, balls () bearing against two raceways () respectively defined by the first ring and by the second ring, and a cage () for holding the balls between the raceways. The cage () is provided with abutment pins (), each for bearing against one of the raceways (), thereby avoiding direct contact between the cage () and the adjacent edges () of the rings. These pins () are distributed on either side of a radial midplane (P) of the cage () that contains the centers of cells in the cage. The axial distance (d) between the ends () of the abutment pins () is strictly less than the minimum distance (D) between the raceways ().
