Abstract
A seal arrangement in a resilient molded plastics body having a bore to receive a cylindrical component. The seal is formed by a plurality of resiliently flexible annular lips molded integrally with the bore at spaced locations along the bore and extending inwardly of the bore to seal with the surface of a cylindrical component (e.g. a tube) inserted in the bore. The lips are angled to extend both inwardly and along the bore in one direction to receive said cylindrical component and preferably three or more sealing lips are provided.
