Abstract

A rolling-element bearing subassembly includes a first bearing ring having an axial face lying in a plane and a plurality of rolling elements on a running surface of the first bearing ring. The first bearing ring is connectable to a second bearing ring to form a rolling-element bearing. An annular retaining body having a first leg connected to a second leg by a bridge, the first leg being shorter than the second leg, is mounted on an axial face of the first bearing ring with the first leg contacting the axial face so that the bridge is located on a first side of the plane and the second leg extends through the plane to define an annular gap between a portion of the first bearing ring and the bridge and a portion of the second leg for retaining a lubricant.
