Abstract
A valve seat assembly for a control valve of a vehicle brake system includes a valve seat body. A valve passageway extends through a portion of the valve seat body. A groove is formed circumferentially in an outer surface of the valve seat body. The groove defines a groove surface substantially parallel to an axis of the valve body. A bore extends between the groove surface and the valve passageway to provide fluid communication between the groove surface and the valve passageway. A substantially resilient seal is disposed in the groove of the valve seat body.
