A pair of beveled-face load rings between which is confined a seal ring sub assembly formed of segmented, polytetrafluoroethylene seals. The seals too have beveled faces which slidably engage the beveled faces of the load rings and, thereby, are prevented from manifesting undue wear and extrusion. Three seal segments of the seal ring assembly form an inner seal which is slidably supported on a land formed on a three-segment outer seal of the seal ring assembly. A circumferential spring urges the segments of the inner and outer seals inwardly into sealing engagement with a to-be-sealed shaft or the like. Locating pins fixed in, and extending from, the outer seal nestably engage the inner seal segments and restrain the latter against unwarranted circumferential displacement.
