Abstract

A centering sleeve for bearing and centering a shaft end includes an inner bushing having passages. An outer bushing surrounds the inner bushing. A spring element made of an elastomer is arranged between the inner bushing and the outer bushing. The spring element has a sealing lip. The elastomer passes through the passages of the inner bushing so as to create an interlocking connection between the spring element and the inner bushing.
