ABSTRACT:
A wheel bearing (42) located between the wheel hub 14 and axle spindle (10) is supplied with lubricant located in an annular cavity between the hub and spindle. A lubricant seal (52) is fitted with slight interference between the hub and seal and defines a sealing lip (72), which is urged by a garter spring (70) into contact with an inner sleeve (76) of the seal. A slinger (58) is supported by tabs (88) on a surface of the bearing and provides a radial planar ring surface (86) located between the bearing race and seal. On assembly, the slinger provides a stop surface that limits axial movement of the inner sleeve of the seal toward the bearing.
