Abstract
A rolling-element bearing cage includes two axially spaced-apart side rings extending in a circumferential direction. Each side ring is split in the circumferential direction along at least one cutting line, thereby defining bordering surfaces on first and second bearing cage sections. A plurality of connecting bridges connects the side rings in an axial direction. First and second pairs of mutually-opposing first projections and corresponding first openings are disposed on the side rings along the bordering surfaces of the first and second bearing cage sections and fix the bordering surfaces to each other in at least first and second directions that are perpendicular to each other. A pair of a second projection and a corresponding second opening is disposed axially between the first and second pairs of first projections and first openings and fixes the bordering surfaces to each other in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions.
