METHOD OF MANUFACTORING A SEALING RING WITH A SEALING LIP

摘要

In a method for manufacturing a sealing ring with a sealing lip, the material forming the sealing lip is fabricated in plastically deformable condition into the shape of a column-like hollow body. Prior to solidification, the column-like hollow body is twisted between axially spaced cross-sectional planes. This forms return elements with hydrodynamic action. Subsequently, the hollow body is solidfied and its diameter is enlarged axially outside the region of the sealing lip and it is then secured in a sealing ring housing.
