Abstract
A seal ring has an annular sealing lip of a polymeric material which bears resiliently about a shaft rotatable relative thereto with a sealing strip and hydrodynamically acting backfeed ribs to one side of the sealing strip. An annular projection projects from the other side of the sealing strip with a radial clearance between a cylindrical or conical interior surface of the annular projection and the shaft. The annular projection is united with the sealing strip in a bending-resistant manner. Damming ribs protrude uniformally about the interior surface of the annular projection. Each damming rib has a leading surface which makes an obtuse angle with the interior surface and is parallel to the axis thereof.
