A spindle structure in which a noise occurrence due to a tap hole and a
screw is effectively prevented. A nut for adjusting a preload of a
bearing is threadedly engaged with an outer circumference of a spindle.
On an edge of the nut, a plurality of tap holes for balance adjustment
are provided at even intervals on a circumference centered around the
axis of the spindle and to be parallel to the axial direction of the
spindle. These tap holes are countersunk, and a plate screw is threadedly
engaged so that an edge of each plate screw is flush with a surface of
the nut. In addition, the plate screw is used as a balance weight by
changing the length thereof.
