Abstract
A suspension strut bearing for a motor vehicle includes a cap, a guide ring rotatably mounted relative to the cap about an axis of rotation, and a bearing arranged between the cap and the guide ring. The cap has a profile with a rib structure open in a radial direction on a front face directed towards a body of the motor vehicle. In some example embodiments, the profile of the open rib structure is formed from multiple webs. At least one first web may be formed at least partially in a circumferential direction on the cap, and at least one second web may be formed at least partially in the radial direction on the cap.
