A resilient cylindrical conduit seal for use between the bell of one pipe and the spigot of another pipe, said seal in the cross-section having opposite halves which are symmetrical to each other, said seal comprises a base portion with sufficient substantially cylindrical surface to make sealing contact with a pipe spigot, the bottom of the seal is indented at its central portion to give resilience to the seal when under compression, and radiating outwardly from said base portion a plurality of ears, each with a tip which is spaced perpendicularly from the base a distance sufficiently greater than the distance between the outer surface of the spigot and the inner surface of the bell to be adapted to make lealing contact with the inner surface of the bell when the seal is compressed between said spigot and bell, an opening through each ear to add resilience to the conduit seal when under compression, the bate portion extending outwardly on both sides of the conduit seal beyond the union of the ears with the base portion, with the tops of said outwardly extending base portions spaced from the ears.
