The first annular end section extends from the first end of the center section. The first end section has a first axially extending leg portion and a first sealing surface facing in a first direction substantially parallel to a main central axis of the sealing ring. The second annular end section extends from the second end of the center section. The second end section has a second axially extending leg portion and a second sealing surface facing in a second direction substantially parallel to the main central axis of the sealing ring.
