Abstract

A seal arrangement includes a first and a second machine part able to move relative to each other about a movement axis and forming a sealing gap. A seal element has a base section retained on a seal retaining groove structure of one of the two machine parts, and has a sealing head that bears with a sealing section in a dynamically sealing manner against a sealing face of the respective other machine part sealing a high-pressure side, that can be charged with pressurized fluid, of the sealing gap with respect to a low-pressure side of the sealing gap. The sealing head and the base section are connected by an elastically deformable connection section of the seal element, which has a non-linear cross-sectional profile and multiple regions of weakened material arranged spaced apart from one another in sequence, preferably regularly, in the circumferential direction of the seal element.
