The invention relates to a sealing device for sealing pipelines for gaseous or fluid media, which contains a closable housing 4, which engages around the pipeline in the manner of a socket, and a sealing element 8 which consists of an elastomeric material, is arranged in the form of a ring in the housing 4 and exhibits an annular bead 12 which projects in the direction of the wall of the pipeline and exhibits a sealing surface which can be rested against the wall. According to the invention, the sealing element 8 contains an annular gap 13 which subdivides the annular bead 12 in the axial direction into a first radial bead 14 on the interior of the seal and into a second radial bead 18 on the exterior of the seal, the gap 13 extending from the sealing surface 15 into the annular bead 12 with such an inclination that an acute-angled sealing lip 21 is formed on the second radial bead 18 adjacent to the gap 13. The first radial bead 14 may exhibit, on the interior of the seal, an axial annular groove in the form of an undercut 16 which forms, on the radial bead 14, an acute-angled sealing lip 17 which is directed towards the interior of the seal. <IMAGE> |
