Elastic insertion bearing

An elastic insertion bearing for supporting a component extending substantially axially, particularly a damper rod for a strut tower, on a vehicle body and for fitting in a vehicle body-side mount, comprising:

• a rigid core to which the component can be secured;
• an elastomeric body radially surrounding the core;
• and
• at least two outer shell sections radially surrounding the elastomeric body are circumferentially spaced away from each other in an unfitted condition and, on being fitted, can be moved radially on each other such that the circumferential spacing is reduced for precompressing the elastomeric body;
• the outer shell sections surround the elastomeric body radially and comprise in the region of at least one of the axial ends of the elastomeric body a shoulder extending radially inwards to encompass at least one section of the elastomeric body such that when the elastomeric body is radially compressed, an axial deviation of the elastomeric body is blocked by the shoulder.
