Wheel bearing

The invention relates to a wheel bearing, in particular for trailer axles, with a hub (1) which is rotatably mounted on an axle journal (4) by means of a front and a rear rolling bearing (2, 3), to which a wheel can be fastened, wherein a sleeve (5) surrounding the axle journal (4) is arranged between the front and rear rolling bearings (2, 3). In order to ensure complete encapsulation of the lubricant spaces (14, 15) relative to the axle journal (4) whilst simultaneously compensating for axial movements occurring between the rolling bearings (2 and 3), the invention proposes that the sleeve (5) is designed as a sleeve (5) which is flexurally elastic in the axial direction of the axle journal (4).
