Abstract

A seal ring is disclosed. The seal ring can have one or more exterior surfaces extending between a first outer axial end of the seal ring to a seal flange. The seal flange can be positioned adjacent to a second outer axial end of the seal ring and can extend radially outward to an outer diameter of the seal ring. An outer surface of the seal flange can form an annular sealing band. A seal ramp can extend outwardly from a first end proximate to the first outer axial end of the seal ring to a second end positioned adjacent to the seal flange. The seal ramp can include a first surface configured to form a frictional, sealing contact interface between the first surface and an elastomeric seal compressed into contact with the first surface when the elastomeric seal is in a loaded state.
