ABSTRACT:
A collar bearing comprising a bearing shell and at least one thrust washer, whereby the at least one thrust washer is fixed on an outer convex circumferential surface of the bearing shell to define a joint site that extends between the convex outer circumferential surface of the bearing shell and a concave inner circumferential surface of the thrust washer, the at least one thrust washer being welded along a weld seam to the bearing shell such that the weld seam extends axially between an outer thrust facing and an opposite inner surface of the at least one thrust washer, and the weld seam extends over only a part of the joint site.
