Abstract
A sealing arrangement for a wheel bearing includes a carrier element connectable to a first bearing part of the wheel bearing, a resilient sealing element, and a counterflow plate connectable to a second bearing part of the wheel bearing. The resilient sealing element includes a resilient main body arranged on the carrier element, first and second axial sealing lips extending away from the resilient main body, and a radial sealing lip extending away from the resilient main body. The counterflow plate is arranged with one side facing the carrier element such that the first and second axial sealing lips, and the radial sealing lip, are in sliding contact with the counterflow plate. The first axial sealing lip, second axial sealing lip, and radial sealing lip rest against the counterflow plate with respective contact pressures.
