Abstract
A bearing seal includes an annular body in sealing contact with the outer race of a bearing. The annular body includes a sealing resilient annular member fitted on a shield portion and projecting from the shield portion to contact in a sliding and sealing manner a sealing surface spaced apart from the bearing. The annular body is attachable to the outer race ring of the bearing by way of an annular bulge provided on the resilient member. The annular bulge is attachable by snap-action in a circumferential groove in the inner surface of the outer race ring of the bearing.
