Abstract
An elastomeric body for a shaft bearing of a motor vehicle is suitable for arrangement in a gap between a bearing support and an inner body. The elastomeric body includes a first attachment leg, a second attachment leg, and a connecting portion interconnecting the first and second attachment legs. In embodiments, at least one of the first and second attachment legs has a plug-on groove that can be plugged onto the bearing support or the inner body in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner such that the plug-on groove encompasses the bearing support or the inner body. Embodiments of the concept further relate to a shaft bearing for a shaft of a motor vehicle.
