PCT No. PCT/EP92/01979 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 2, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 2, 1993 PCT Filed Aug. 27, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/04882 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 18, 1993.A bearing (1) for the wheel suspension strut of a motor vehicle has an inner and an outer bearing ring (2, 3). The inner bearing ring (2) radially encloses a clearance ring (5) concentrically arranged in its bore (4). A bearing housing (8) made of deep-drawn sheet metal encloses the outer bearing ring (3). In order to reduce the total mass of the bearing and to allow it to be easily linked to a neighboring part of the car body, the bearing housing (8) forms a single piece with a flange (9) that extends essentially transversely to the bearing axis (10). The flange has at least one bore and screw (12, 13) for securing the suspension strut bearing (1) to a neighboring part of the car body.
