A bearing assembly 20 has a plurality of rolling elements 32 in rolling contact with a metal outer race 22 and is retained within a bearing cage. An annular bushing partially encloses the outer race, the annular bushing being split along a radial plane into two bushing halves 24 moulded of an engineered thermoplastic elastomer. The bushing halves are retained axially together such that axial movement of the outer race is limited. The annular bushing may incorporate integral annular seals 30 and may have a rounded radially outward surface to facilitate self-alignment of the bearing assembly.
