ABSTRACT:
A seal is disclosed for use on the neck of a rotatable roll in a rolling mill. The seal includes a flexible circular inner body segment adapted to be mounted in sealing engagement on the roll neck for rotation therewith, and a flexible circular outer body segment adapted to be mounted on the exterior surface of the inner body segment. The outer body segment has axially spaced resilient flanges extending radially outwardly therefrom. The inner and outer body segments, which may if desired be manufactured of different materials, are connected together in a manner which prevents rotation of one segment relative to the other segment, and which also preferably permits the outer body segment to be readily separated from the inner body segment. A reinforcing element may be associated with the outer body segment for the purpose of resisting centrifugal forces acting on the seal during rotation of the roll neck.
