An outer joint member 31 and a hub wheel 16 are coupled so as to be able to transmit torque by meshing face splines 51 and 52 respectively provided and applying a tightening force in an axial direction between both the face splines 51 and 52. Shapes of tooth surfaces of both the face splines 51 and 52 are determined such that, in a process of bringing both the face splines 51 and 52 close to each other in the axial direction and meshing with each other, tooth surfaces 51a and 51b of both the face splines 51 and 52 first come into contact with each other in, among an outer diameter portion Ea of a meshing region X between both the face splines, an inner diameter portion Ec, and an intermediate portion Eb sandwiched between the outer diameter portion and the inner diameter portion, the intermediate portion Eb.
