<p>This invention relates to a seal (10) for protecting an end of an idler roll (15) against contaminants. The seal includes a fastener (30) engageable with the end of the idler roll and an integral first sealing member (40) molded onto the fastener and extending radially outward from the fastener. A second sealing member (50) is integrated with the first sealing member. The first sealing member and the second sealing member (50) project into frictional engagement with the end of the idler roll. When assembled with the end of the idler roll, the first sealing member and the sealing member are biased into frictional engagement with the end of the idler roll, thus protecting the end of the idler roll from contaminants in wet environments.</p> |
