A flexural pivot bearing includes a pair of members with opposed close-spaced faces which are joined by a web (29), of microscopic thickness, in a plane intersecting the faces. These members and the web are comprised of an integral body (27) of substantially uniform material, and the members are adapted for pivoted mutual flexure about a pivot axis aligned along the web.
