Abstract
A wheel hub bearing assembly includes a rotatable flanged inner ring, a stationary outer ring disposed about the inner ring such that a gap is defined between the inner and outer rings and a sealing device coupled with a tubular end collar of the outer ring. The sealing device includes a shield mounted in axial abutment against the tubular end collar and a sealing fluid applied in an application zone located between the tubular end collar and the shield. An element for collecting and accumulating the sealing fluid is associated with the sealing device and is arranged at the outside of the application zone in order to collect any sealing fluid escaping from the application zone.
