Abstract:
A seal for a rolling bearing includes a core metal and an elastic member configured to cover the core metal. A fitting portion is fixed to an outer ring and a seal portion contacts an inner ring. In the outer side of the seal portion an auxiliary lip projects without contacting the inner ring and in the inner side a main lip projects contacting the inner ring. An annular groove is formed between the main lip and a thick wall portion thus forming a flexible portion having a small wall thickness at a root portion of the main lip. The auxiliary lip inhibits intrusion of foreign substances and moisture, reduces external pressure acting on the main lip and ensures the sealing performance of the main lip. The flexible portion reduces the sliding resistance of the main lip.

Claim (Index 8):
A rolling bearing comprising the seal for the rolling bearing according to  claim 2 .
