Abstract
A sealing assembly for two relatively rotating mechanical members, e.g. the two rings of a rolling-contact bearing, and of the type incorporating a sealing ring and a magnetic ring, both integral with a rigid first shield. The first shield has a radial flange. The sealing assembly also includes a covering of elastomeric material having a base portion extending on one face of the flange. The magnetic ring has an annular surface bonded to the base portion of the covering, and projects axially from the flange. The base portion of the covering is interposed axially between the flange and the magnetic ring, and is shaped to define a deformable locating and supporting mechanism for locating and supporting the magnetic ring.
