  • Patent number: 5447377
    Abstract: This invention relates to a sealed-bearing roller assembly comprising a double sealed bearing means, an axle member compressibly engaged in the bearing means, and a roller body preferably made of Polyethylene plastic and securely mounted about the bearing means. The roller body has a protective side wall to substantially prevent unwanted moisture and debris from penetrating inside the roller body and damaging and wearing out the bearing means which has two seals to substantially prevent foreign matter from penetrating inside the bearing means. The sealed-bearing roller assembly is longer lasting, more quiet, more resistant to rust and corrosion, and comparably resistant to abrasive materials than the prior art which is commonly made of steel.
