Abstract
A sealing assembly for rolling bearing comprises a shield interference fitted to a first race of the bearing. The shield comprises a rigid support having an axial sleeve portion for connection to the first race, and a radial flange portion extending towards the second race of bearing. The support forms a U-fold acting as an axial stopping means for co-operating with a mating surface of the first race to axially lock the shield with respect to said first race.
