ABSTRACT:
A seal ring for sealing an annular space between two telescoped and relatively movable parts. The ring seats in a groove in one of the parts, and leaf springs urge the seated ring against the other part to effect the seal. The leaf springs include annealed or reduced-cross-section portions which provide relatively low-rate and long-travel spring characteristics to accommodate tolerance variations, dimensional changes of the ring as wear occurs, and thermal expansion or contraction of the sealed parts. The wearing surfaces of the ring may be covered by a plastic cap or anti-galling coating.
