Abstract: A compressible seal (400A) includes a compressible body (406) having a first surface (410) and a second surface. A pattern of discontinuous adhesive regions (412) is formed of an adhesive connected with at least one of the first surface (410) or the second surface of the compressible body (406). The compressible body (406) is operable to conform around the pattern of adhesive regions (412) to prevent fluid ingress when the compressible body (406) is compressed.
