An end stop cap for a rolling bearing for mounting in a railway axle box of a respective support device. The cap being a concave disc delimited by a lateral wall having a symmetric axis, coaxial with a bearing's symmetric axis by an end wall, transverse to the symmetric axis, and by an elbow-shaped transition connecting the end and lateral walls. Holes extend through the end wall for fastening screws. The lateral wall terminates on the side opposite the end wall in an annular frontal surface which rests against a bearing ring. The end wall has a continuously variable thickness, in at least one radial direction passing through an symmetric axis of the holes in a radial direction between a maximum thickness located in a position substantially intermediate between an inner edge of the hole and the symmetric axis and a minimum thickness at the position of the symmetric axis.
