Abstract: A seal configuration, mold and manufacturing process that inhibits undesirable elastomer migration onto critical radially inwardly facing portions of a plastic-lined dynamic sealing lip, for improved high-pressure seal operation. The seal configuration is a hydrodynamically lubricating rotary seal for differential pressure acting in either axial direction that establishes compressed sealing engagement with a relatively rotatable surface and wedges a film of lubricating fluid into the interface between the rotary seal and the relatively rotatable surface in response to relative rotation that may occur in the clockwise or counter-clockwise direction. The rotary seal having a dynamic lip with hydrodynamic waves on both sides of the dynamic lip with the axial width of the seal minimized while maximizing the axial width of the dynamic sealing surface.
