A bearing shield (54) is mountable on a bearing outer ring (42) such that the bearing shield extends radially inward toward a standardised bearing inner ring (44). An inner ring insert (74) is mountable on the inner ring such that the inner ring insert extends a predetermined axial length beyond the inner ring and is engaged by a resilient seal member (56) fixed to the bearing shield to seal an inner ring/outer ring annulus. The inner ring, inner ring insert, and a possible insert spacer (100) provide a modular inner ring assembly of a predetermined length. Optionally, the inner ring insert can provide a "slinger" (130) or join two inner rings together to form a bearing assembly with multiple rows of rolling elements. <IMAGE> |
