Abstract
The sealing element has a ring consisting of an elastic material. The ring consists of a continuous support section, a first sealing lip, formed thereon for sealing the injector and a second sealing lip for sealing the cylinder head. The sealing lips project substantially inwards in a radial direction and together with the support section form a continuous groove of the ring. The axial thicknesses of the sealing lips are measured in such a way that said sealing lips have a deformable plasticity for sealing purposes, which depends on a predetermined force that is used to fix the injector in the cylinder head. The radial thickness of the support section is greater than the axial thickness of the sealing lips and is measured in such a way that the support section prevents the sealing element from being compressed, when said element is placed between the injector and the cylinder head.
