ABSTRACT:
A bearing and seal assembly in which the seal has an outer casing formed with claws which are engaged in an annular groove in the outer periphery of the outer bearing ring, and a resilient annular lip or washer compressed between the outer casing and the adjacent side wall of the bearing ring and urging the outer casing away from the bearing ring, so as to engage the claws as a tight fit against a side wall of the annular groove. In one embodiment, the outer casing of the seal is made of resilient material and the annular lip is formed integral with the casing. In another embodiment, a non-planar washer of resilient material is compressed between a step on the outer casing and the adjacent side wall of the outer bearing ring.
