Abstract
A seal assembly including a low flow cloth ring seal having a cloth assemblage is provided for sealing a tubular cavity disposed between a tubular member and a mating body. The density of the cloth assemblage may be set according to a desired flow rate of gas through the cloth ring seal. In applications where more stiffness and strength is desired, the cloth ring seal may include a shim assemblage surrounded by the cloth assemblage.
