ABSTRACT:
A seal assembly is provided for static, rotary and reciprocating sealing between the shaft and the housing. The seal assembly includes a ring seal in the shape of an annulus having a body portion with an inside flange and an outside flange extending longitudinally therefrom. A spring is disposed between the flanges for radially biasing the flanges from one another to effect sealing between the shaft and the housing and a circular band disposed between the spring and the outside flange is provided for maintaining radial force against the outside flange to retain the ring within the housing and provide static sealing between the ring seal and the housing despite shrinkage of the fluoropolymer seal ring.
