PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rolling element receiving belt which can be manipulated without special care, and can reduce circulation resistance caused by the rubbing of the tip end of the rolling element receiving belt with the inside wall or the guide groove of an endless circulation path without reducing the load capacity and the rigidity of a linear motion guide. SOLUTION: In the linear motion guide, the rolling element receiving belt 50 is formed so as to have both ends, and has a plurality of rolling element receiving portions 55 for individually receiving balls 46. The respective rolling element receiving portions 55 located at both end portions have rolling element contacting surfaces 54 to be brought into contact with the balls 46 to be received therein so as to restrict the movement of the respective end portions at least toward the outer peripheral side at the respective end portions (spacer portions 59) of the endless circulation path 28. The rolling element contacting surfaces 54 are the surfaces for shifting the ball 46 received therein toward the outer peripheral side of the endless circulation path 28 with respect to the balls 46 to be received in other rolling element receiving portions 55.
