Zusammenfassung:	In an example, a seal for a wheel assembly includes a first rim half and a second rim half. The seal comprises a cylindrical body having a hollow interior, a first seal end configured to mate with a first inner rim surface of the first rim half, and a second seal end configured to mate with a second inner rim surface of the second rim half, and one or more drain holes. The cylindrical body has a cylindrical wall with the one or more drain holes configured to substantially deflect incoming matter from impinging upon the hollow interior and to allow condensate to evacuate from the hollow interior through the one or more drain holes. The cylindrical body comprises an elastomeric material.
