Abstract

A sealed bearing includes inner and outer race rings, roller members disposed therebetween, and built-in sealing members for sealing the space in which the roller members are situated. The outer race ring is equipped with a mounting groove 5 for each sealing member. The groove is situated axially inside of a side plane of the outer race ring and is inclined obliquely relative to that side plane. The mounting groove has an opening situated axially outside of the outer race track, whereas at least a part of the inner end of the groove is situated axially inside of the outer axial end of the outer race track.
