ABSTRACT:
A novel seal for transversely sealing a bearing includes a seal body formed from a stiff, homogeneous material. The seal body is adapted to be received at outer race groove and inner race land. The seal is characterized by a set of annular hinges formed in the seal body in such a manner that the otherwise rigid seal will dynamically compensate for dimensional differences between the seal and the bearing races, thereby maintaining the seal integrity.
