ABSTRACT:
A static seal capable of accommodating significant lack of flatness comprises a PTFE envelope 1, within which is a filling 5 consisting of wound or nested turns of thin metal strip 7 perforated to provide resiliance in the direction of their width. Individual turns can move or collapse to different extents, thereby accommodating lack of flatness of surfaces to be sealed. Turns of fluid-impervious material may be distributed among the turns of perforated strip.
