Abstract

A bearing utilizing a plurality of wires has the races for the roller bodies provides individual lining strips between each wire and the groove walls of the receiving structural members of the bearing. These lining strips are braced in two mutually perpendicular directions against two mutually perpendicular countersurfaces of the grooves and a yieldable connection can be provided between the pair of lining strips in one or both of the grooves so that the bearing prestress and play can be adjusted.
