A bearing assembly includes a shaft, a first bearing, and a nut. The nut has a thread, which is screwed onto a threaded region formed on the shaft, and a bearing seat formed on the shaft adjoins the threaded region. The inner ring of the first bearing contacts the bearing seat, and the nut contacts the inner ring of the first bearing. The inner ring of the first bearing is arranged spaced apart from the threaded region of the shaft. A runout region of a thread cut into the threaded region of the shaft is arranged in a subsection of the bearing seat adjoining the threaded region.
