The present apparatus for testing rolling physical characteristics of materials, especially rolling contact fatigue resistance of materials, represents the most simple and universal solution, by which it is possible to test not only laboratory tested objects prepared in advance, but also various final products or parts thereof. Thanks to linearly oscillating movement of the testing ball 30 foreseen by the apparatus according to the invention, it is much easier to test the surface 20 of the tested object 2. While appropriate point contact between the testing ball 30 and appropriate surface 20 of the tested object 2 is ensured, the testing ball 30 is linearly oscillatory rolled here and there along the surface 30 of the tested object 2, which is thereby clamped in appropriate clamping unit 1. The loading unit of the present invention comprises a bearing surface 33 arranged opposite to the tested object 2 and is equipped with a groove 34 arranged in the direction of rolling of the testing ball 30. The groove being capable of guiding the testing ball 30 over the testing surface of the tested object.
