Linear rolling bearing

A linear rolling bearing comprising a guide carriage with a U-shaped cross-section having a U-crossbar and two U-legs so that the guide carriage forms a carriage cavity and partially surrounds a guide rail while being slidably supported through balls on two longitudinal sides of the guide rail, each U-leg of the guide carriage having on an inner surface opposing the guide rail a ground raceway with an approximately quarter circle cross-section for the balls, the raceway being made by a grinding wheel whose diameter is larger than a diagonal dimension of the carriage cavity and whose axis of rotation is situated outside of the guide carriage and forms an acute angle (α) with an axis of symmetry of the guide carriage, characterized in that a stop surface having a retaining contour for a guide member containing the balls is configured on a guide rail-distal outer surface of each U-leg of the guide carriage, and the raceway on one of the two U-legs and the stop surface having the retaining contour on the other of the two U-legs are made in common in one work step by the grinding wheel.
