Electronic, optical, and surface properties of PtSi thin films

A radial shaft sealing ring includes an outer fastening ring reinforced by an insert for fixing the sealing ring in the bore of a casing through which a rotating shaft passes. The sealing ring includes a sealing lip directed toward the inside of the casing and biased by a spring against the outer surface of the shaft. A dust protection lip, directed angularly toward the outside of the casing, includes an arcuate cut through its thickness defining a deflectable tab, which opens by bending through the thickness of the lip within the space extending between the dust protecting lip and the sealing lip when pressure within the space rises.
