Abstract

The invention relates to a shaft and hub connection for securing bearings, in particular ball bearings (12), on a shaft (10). The proposal is made that the hub part (14) of the bearing (12) encompassing the shaft (10) have at least one axial surface (20), against which a projection (24, 30) rests, which is produced from the shaft (10) by means of plastic deformation and prevents an axial movement.
