Antifriction bearing with seal arrangement

A bearing comprising:

• an annular inner race;
• an annular outer race having an inside diameter greater than the outside diameter of the annular inner race thereby providing an inner race-outer race annulus, both end surfaces of each race extending radially to the axis of the bearing, each end surface of the outer race being spaced axially inwardly from its corresponding inner race end surface, the axial end portions of the outer race having a smaller outside diameter than the outside diameter of the remainder of the outer race, each smaller outside diameter of the outer race having an annular groove;
• and a pair of axially spaced annular sealing members sealing the inner race-outer race annulus, each sealing member having a metal part consisting of an axially inwardly extending radially inside portion radially spaced from the outside periphery of the inner race, and an axially extending radially outside portion extending over the corresponding smaller outside diameter of the outer race interconnected by a portion having its axially outside surface extending along the same radial plane as the corresponding inner race end surface;
• a rubber seal lip molded on the metal part inside portion and in contact with the outside periphery of the inner race;
• and a rubber insert molded on the metal part outside portion, the rubber insert having an outside diameter substantially the same as the diameter of the remainder of the outer race, the rubber insert also having an annular portion fitting into said groove whereby the rubber insert is locked in the annular groove when the bearing is inserted into the bore of a housing.
