A sealing device to be mounted between a member and a rotation shaft which can be rotated relatively to the member, includes an annular flanged portion formed of a resin and disposed to surround the rotation shaft, and extends in a radial direction of the rotation shaft. A resin seal lip extends from an inner end of the flanged portion in an axial direction of the rotation shaft toward fluid to be sealed in such a manner that the resin seal lip surrounds the rotation shaft. The resin seal lip has a first seal ring having a sealing surface which hermetically and slidably contacts the rotation shaft, a second seal ring having an elastic flanged portion formed of a rubber material and disposed to surround the rotation shaft and extending in a radial direction of the rotation shaft, and an elastic seal lip extending, over the resin seal lip, from an inner end of the elastic flanged portion in the axial direction of the rotation shaft toward the fluid to be sealed to surround the resin seal lip. The elastic seal lip incorporates a lip leading portion having a sealing surface which slidably and hermetically contacts the rotation shaft. The flanged portion and the elastic flanged portion are bonded and secured to each other while interposing at least one continuous bonded portion to continuously surround at least the rotation shaft, and the continuous bonded portion seals the joining surface between the flanged portion and the elastic flanged portion.

A method of molding a sealing device by using a mold having an inner cavity, comprising the steps of: preparing a resin material having a cylindrical shape; cutting the resin material to cut off a conical washer member; chamfering an inner end portion of the cut conical washer member; disposing the conical washer member in the cavity of the mold; preparing an elastic material to be supplied in the cavity of the mold; supplying the elastic material on the conical washer member in the mold; pressuring the conical washer member and the supplied elastic material to fluidize the elastic material so that the cavity of the mold is filled up with the fluidized elastic material in a predetermined shape which includes a flanged portion; and deforming the conical washer member to have an L-shaped cross section by utilizing the pressure of the fluidized elastic material, so that an outer extreme end portion of the conical washer member provides a conical outer periphery having a predetermined inclination in the cavity with respect to said flanged portion.
