A battery seal terminal capable of withstanding high pressures, thermal and mechanical shocks and temperatures in excess of 135 DEG C. includes a plastic sealant bushing radially compressed against the battery lead post by an outer metal sleeve, and two pairs of retainer rings, the first ring of each pair having sufficient elasticity to be press-fitted between the lead post and the sleeve to abut against an end of the bushing, and the second ring of each pair being of a rigid material and abutting against the first ring. The lead post extends through the sleeve at either end thereof. A hub is located on the lead post near one end of the sleeve and a portion of the lead post which extends beyond the sleeve at the other end is threaded. The bushing is then axially compressed between the ring pairs by drawing down a nut on the threaded end of the lead post.
