Abstract
A sealing element seals a space between a first bearing ring and a second bearing ring. The sealing ring includes a sealing disk which has a plurality of sealing segments on at least one periphery. Alternate sealing segments are oriented at positive and negative angles with respect to a main plane of the sealing disk. The sealing element is installed into the bearing such that the sealing segments extend into and contact a recess in one of the bearing rings.
