ABSTRACT:
A self energizing one piece seal has an annular seal body and a multiplicity of circumferentially spaced delta shaped resilient tabs extending inwardly from the annular body. The seal is adapted to be placed in an annular groove of a cylindrical member so that a circumferential seal face is initially biased into sealing engagement with a bore of a body and a radial seal face is initially biased into sealing engagement with a radial face of the groove by the resilient tabs.
