Each of the plurality of cantilever portions comprises two prong portions and a connection portion between the two prong portions. The bearing cage further comprises one or more of: a plurality of recesses formed in a radially outer side of the cantilever portions, and a plurality of grooves formed in the radially inner side of the bearing cage.

A modular wheel-hub bearing unit having an outer flanged hub for mounting the unit on an upright of a vehicle, provided externally with an assembly surface and internally with a mounting seat; and a bearing provided with an outer ring, two inner rings and two rows of rolling elements arranged between the outer ring and the two inner rings. The bearing being mounted inside the assembly seat independently of the outer flanged hub and having an outer diameter, the dimensions of which are related to the dimensions of an outer diameter of the assembly surface of the flanged hub by a first coefficient (α) according to the relation: D2=α*D1, where 0.80≤α≤0.95.

A bearing unit having a radially outer ring, a radially inner ring, a row of rolling elements interposed between the outer ring and the inner ring, a shaped sealing screen interposed between the inner ring and the outer ring and stably inserted inside a first seat of the outer ring, and a snap ring stably inserted inside a second seat of the radially outer ring and interacting with the shaped screen so as to lock it in the first seat.

An inner sliding surface for a radial plain bearing, including four circle arcs in at least one cross section. A first arc and a second arc of the four circle arcs lie on different sides of a longitudinal sectional plane which intersects a third arc of the four circle arcs, a fourth arc of the four circle arcs and a common center point of the third arc and the fourth arc. The first arc and a center point of the first arc lie on different sides of the longitudinal sectional plane, and the second arc and a center point of the second arc lie on different sides of the longitudinal sectional plane.

A groove curvature radius ratio Ri of the inner ring raceway groove to a ball diameter is 54% to 58%, a groove curvature radius ratio Ro of an outer ring raceway groove of an outer ring to the ball diameter is 51% to 58%, and Ri−Ro≥0 points. At least an inner ring raceway groove of an inner ring has a maximum surface pressure of 4.7 GPa to 6.0 GPa when a sum of permanent deformation amounts of the ball and the inner ring raceway groove at a center of a contact portion between a ball of an angular ball bearing and the inner ring raceway groove is 1/10,000 of the ball diameter. Accordingly, it is possible to provide the angular ball bearing that can reduce the heat generation amount, and that can reduce the damage caused by the external impact load in the stationary state.

The present disclosure relates to a shaft adapted to be at least partially inserted into an opening of a shaft receiver. The shaft comprises a nominal shaft portion adapted to be at least partially inserted into the opening of the shaft receiver, followed by an intermediate shaft portion that in turn is followed by a guide shaft portion terminating the shaft. The shaft comprises a cross-section with a cross-sectional contour in a plane including the central axis, the cross-sectional contour comprising a nominal shaft portion contour of the nominal shaft portion, an intermediate shaft portion contour of the intermediate shaft portion and a guide shaft portion contour of the guide shaft portion. The cross-sectional contour comprises a radial direction being perpendicular to the central axis, wherein, as seen in the radial direction, the nominal shaft portion contour is located at a nominal radial distance from the central axis.
