A method for producing a roller bearing may include threading a cam roller onto a bearing sleeve until the cam roller abuts a first axial flange of the bearing sleeve and inserting a counter holder into the bearing sleeve until the first axial flange of the bearing sleeve abuts a stop of the counter holder. The method may also include heating the bearing sleeve and forming an opposite second axial flange via inserting a forming punch into the bearing sleeve after heating the bearing sleeve. The second axial flange may be formed such that the cam roller is held in the bearing sleeve with radial play and axial play after the bearing sleeve cools down. The method may further include removing the forming punch and the counter holder from within the bearing sleeve.
