Abstract

A rolling element cage for a linear guide system includes two receiving portions and a connecting portion connecting the two receiving portions, wherein each of the two receiving portions includes two extended top surfaces. The two receiving portions each include a plurality of apertures. Each aperture includes a side surface connecting the two top surfaces. At least one of a plurality of bearing rolling elements is receivable in each of the plurality of apertures of the rolling element cage, so that the side surface of the aperture or a transition between one of the two top surfaces and the side surface can be brought into contact with a rolling element surface of the bearing rolling element which is receivable in the aperture. The transition between one of the two top surfaces and the side surface includes, at least in sections, a broken edge, an edge including a chamfer or a rounding.
