Abstract
A slide ring unit includes a slide ring having first and second opposite axial ends. The slide ring further has a sealing face at the first axial end and a conical circumferential surface for supporting an elastic rolling body thereon. The circumferential surface tapers from the sealing face toward the second axial end. The slide ring unit further has a stop for axially retaining the rolling body on the circumferential surface of the slide ring. The stop forms a component separate from the slide ring and adjoins the slide ring at the second axial end thereof. The stop has an outer circumferential surface terminating at and flush with the conical circumferential surface of the slide ring at the second axial end thereof. Further, a securing arrangement is provided for attaching the stop to the slide ring.
