The seal includes a shell (10) which comprises a radial portion (24) coaxially connected at its outer perimeter with a substantially cyclindrical portion (20. An elastomeric body (12) is bonded to the inner surface of the shell (10), having an annular sealing lip (30) on a part of the body (12) made of a low friction material. Differential pressure across the seal is prevented from forcing the sealing lip (30) axially past the radial portion (24) by means of a second cylindrical portion (22) connected with the inner perimeter of the radial portion (24). The ring-like second cylindrical portion (22) abuts, but is not bonded to the elastomeric body (12).
