Abstract: An energizing element including: an energizing element body including an annular filament oriented about a central axis, the annular filament including a plurality of oscillations generally directed down the central axis, where at least one oscillation includes an internal circumferential void having a first circumferential width, WFV, and a second circumferential width, WSV, located at a different axial position along the oscillation, and where WFV?WSV.

Abstract: A seal assembly comprising: a housing defining a groove; a seal disposed in the groove of the housing; and a coupling element adapted to restrict relative movement between the housing and the seal.

Abstract: A seal including a first annular body having an inner radius and an outer radius, and a first circumferential end and a second circumferential end defining a first split along the circumference of the first annular body; and a second annular body having an inner radius and an outer radius, and a first circumferential end and a second circumferential end defining a first split along the circumference of the second annular body, where the circumferential split of the first annular body is offset from the circumferential split of the second annular body at an arc distance defined by a central angle C, wherein the central angle C is no less than 15°, or where the second annular body is adapted to force the first split of the first annular body to close around a fluid component.
