An improved flanged sealing ring for valves, and the like, and comprising a rigid annular core member, a resilient covering surrounding the core member, and outwardly extending flange provided on the outer periphery of the resilient covering whereby the cross sectional configuration of the sealing ring is substantially T-shaped, the outer periphery of the sealing ring being of an outwardly bulging configuration oppositely disposed from the flange, and the cross sectional configuration of the rigid core member preferably being of a substantially T-shaped configuration for facilitating reinforcing of the sealing ring.

In combination with a valve having an annular retaining groove of substantially T-shaped cross-sectional configuration with one open side and a bottom, an annular sealing ring disposed in said groove and comprising a unitary rigid annular core, a resilient covering disposed around the core, an outwardly extending flange provided in the outer periphery of the resilient covering, said rigid core having a width greater than the width of the open side of the groove, said flange extending outwardly through the open side of the groove, said resilient covering having a bulbous surface oppositely disposed with respect to the outwardly extending flange to provide a relatively small area of engagement with the bottom of the groove in an uncompressed condition of the sealing ring and relatively large area of engagement in the compressed condition of the sealing ring, said groove having a surface cooperating with the bulbous surface of said resilient covering whereby a relatively large clearance space for compression is provided between the bulbous surface of the groove surface, and wherein the cross-sectional configuration of the resilient covering is substantially T-shaped and wherein the cross-sectional configuration of the annular core is substantially T-shaped generally corresponding to the cross-sectional configuration of the resilient covering.
