A flexible gasket in a groove is used to seal a body carrying the groove against a second body facing the open side of the groove. Slots are cut in the wall of the groove facing the high pressure side of the seal to allow the high pressure fluid to push the gasket against the second body and the opposite wall of the groove. The gasket has a cross section slightly larger than the groove so that portions of the gasket extend into the slots to hold the gasket in the groove.
