Abstract
Through-holes are formed in an axially intermediate portion of a cylindrical portion of a first metal core, at predetermined intervals in a circumferential direction, and the through-holes pass through the cylindrical portion in a radial direction. A first elastic seal has a lip that is in sliding contact with an outer peripheral face of a cylindrical portion of a second metal core, a first cylindrical portion that is in close contact with an inner peripheral face of an axially inner-side portion of the cylindrical portion of the first metal core, a second cylindrical portion that is in close contact with an outer peripheral face of an axially outer-side portion of the cylindrical portion of the first metal core, and connecting pieces that are inserted into the through-holes of the cylindrical portion of the first metal core and that connect the first cylindrical portion with the second cylindrical portion.
