The outer cylinder (11) is configured from a main outer cylinder body (11a) obtained from a rigid material and synthetic resin tube-shaped outer cylinder ends (11b) that are provided on each of the two ends of the main outer cylinder body and have a recessed section, which serves as a portion of the wall surface of the ball circulation paths of the tube-shaped ball cage, formed on the inner circumferential surface. Protrusions (21) are provided along the circumferential direction on either the surface of the ball cage near each of the two ends or the surface of the respective outer cylinder ends that faces same, and recesses (22) are provided along the circumferential direction on the other surface.
