Abstract

A seal for sealing the end of a shaft passing out of the end wall of a casing, as well as for sealing the end wall, is characterized in that a gasket receptacle is manufactured as a light metal pressure die casting, that a polytetrafluoroethylene sealing member is pressed from one side of the gasket receptacle towards which a recess is open and the radially outer portion of the shaft seal ring is injected round on either side with an elastomer material via a connecting channel of the die casting towards an end wall-side groove for receiving a static gasket during its moulding to the gasket receptacle. In the final operating stage, the sealing lip of the sealing member penetrated by a tube is bent axially by drawing onto a sleeve.
