Abstract
A fastening arrangement for fastening an antifriction bearing in a housing bore. A securing sleeve is disposed at an edge at the outside and toward one axial end of the outer ring of the bearing. The sleeve has beadlike projections that are sprung radially outwardly and that are received in a groove formed in the housing for axially affixing the bearing in the bore. The securing sleeve is axially sprung against the axial end of the outer ring.
