This invention relates to a pipe joint sealing device. The device includes an annular resilient body of rubber which is generally V-shaped in cross-section which defines inner and outer annular flanges or body portions. This annular body or rubber ring is fitted into the opening of a rigid concrete structure, such as a manhole, in fluid-type engagement therewith. This engagement is interlocking which prevents the accidental dislodgement of the rubber ring from the opening, and is achieved b casting the concrete into lockingengagement with the outer peripheral surface of the ring, this ring being provided with an annular anchor portion which in cross-section is of keystone shape.
