A pre-seal element with a lip extending toward the inner ring is supported on that axial side of the magnet that is toward the rolling element balls. A notch is defined in the inner race radially generally centered beneath the lip. The opposite axial side surfaces of the notch are obliquely outwardly inclined in the radially outward direction.
