The rubber relies on the elasticity generated by the deformation of the rubber to make the rubber and the sealing surface fit tightly to achieve a seal. Usually, special grease is applied between the lips to reduce friction and improve the sealing effect. This sealing structure is widely used in reciprocating sealing applications because of its good wear resistance, simple structure and reliable sealing. Summary of the Invention
