An improved annular seal 10 and hanger 14 which are to be installed in a wellhead housing 12. The annular seal assembly 10 includes seal ring 42 having a central body with upper outer rim 66, upper inner rim 64, lower outer rim 70 and lower inner rim 68 extending from the central body, an upper wedge ring 46, a lower wedge ring 44 and means 50 connecting the rings to allow setting movement thereof, and means releasably securing the assembled rings to the hanger for running into the wellhead housing. Each of the rims includes an outer sealing lip 72, the outer sealing lips having a free diameter less than the diameter of the lower wedge ring so that the sealing lips are protected during running of the hanger into the wellhead housing. Means are provided for moving the wedge rings into the space between the rims of the seal ring for urging the sealing lips into sealing engagement with the interior sealing surface of the housing. |
