ABSTRACT:
An improved method for retaining a separable bearing race to a inner bearing member by rolling over a deformable lip of the inner bearing member into a race abutting bead. The outer edge and inner surface of the separable race are cut away partially by a shallow, continuous, conical relieved portion with sufficient length and radial thickness to accommodate the degree of material swelling just inside of the race that results from the lip deformation process. Consequently, the swelled material does not bind unevenly on or stress the race, which maintains solid and secure contact with the inner bearing member.
