Torque resistant seal

A torque-resistant dual face seal includes a seal ring (110, 112) having an L-shaped cross-section including an axially-extending flange (140, 142) and a radially-extending flange (126, 128), the seal ring including an annular seal face (118, 120) and an annular loading surface (134, 136). The seal...

Summary:A torque-resistant dual face seal includes a seal ring (110, 112) having an L-shaped cross-section including an axially-extending flange (140, 142) and a radially-extending flange (126, 128), the seal ring including an annular seal face (118, 120) and an annular loading surface (134, 136). The seal ring includes a plurality of deformations (138) formed in a spaced apart arrangement circumferentially around the axially-extending flange. An axial cross-section through the axially-extending flange and intersecting one of the plurality of deformations includes a stepped geometry. The plurality of deformations allows a load ring (114, 116) to squeeze into the plurality of deformations to increase a surface area contact between the seal ring and the load ring.
