Abstract

A valve stem seal device has a valve stem guide, a cylindrical metallic ring retained to an outer periphery of the valve stem guide, a rubbery elastic seal lip integrally formed in one end side of the metallic ring, and hermetically sliding to the valve stem, and a valve stem seal having the cylindrical metallic ring and the seal lip and fixed to the valve stem guide side. The valve stem seal device has a stop ring retained between a circular-truncated-cone-shaped surface which is expanded toward a side of the seal lip formed in an outer peripheral surface of the valve stem guide, and a cylindrical inner peripheral surface of the metallic ring. The stop ring has a cut part, and a movement limiting means for limiting a movement in an axial direction of the stop ring is provided in the other end side of the metallic ring.
