The seal is composed of butt-jointed segments (1) in which the bearing surface (18) on a rotating part (2) subject to wear, includes a hollow chamber (20) communicating through calibrated orifices (22) with a high pressure containment (8). Therefore, it fills up with gas which tends to force it away from the surface, thus reducing the contact pressure without introducing excessive leaks. Figure 2.
