Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention concerns a bearing assembly comprising an inner ring, an outer ring and rolling elements, the inner ring and outer ring being rotatably coupled by means of the rolling elements. The rolling elements are disposed on opposing raceways within a bearing cavity and are retained in a cage. The bearing is provided with a lubricant and further comprises at least one sealing element, mounted in an annular gap between the inner and outer ring. To prevent the lubricant adhering to predetermined surfaces within the bearing cavity which do not require lubrication, at least one of these predetermined surfaces is provided with an oleophobic coating. One advantage of the invention is that the lubricant ages less quickly, leading to improved bearing service life.
