ABSTRACT:
An integral ring shaped seal of flexible elastomer material includes one or more oppositely peripherally disposed ridges and grooves for effecting sealing between telescoping male and female conduits, useful in air conditioning and heating ducts for commercial and military aircraft. The ridge(s) is absorbed into the flexible seal body due to compensation provided by the groove(s) which also disappears, thereby insuring sealing against vapor and fluid leakage throughout a broad temperature and pressure range.
