Zusammenfassung:	Flexible Seal Assembly A flexible seal assembly is provided for a joint having a first member which is both pivotable about and axially movable along an axis relative to a second joint member. The seal assembly is disposed within an annular recess of the first joint member and includes an annular seal of a flexible, wear resistant material and a metallic load ring. The seal has an axially movable sealing portion with an annular seal lip. The load spring is disposed behind the sealing portion for urging and maintaining the seal lip in sealing engagement against a sealing surface of the second joint member. A rigid stiffener ring is molded into the sealing portion of the seal and it of a construction and position within the sealing portion to provide the sealing portion with an intervening wall portion of the resilient material of the seal separating the stiffener ring from direct force transmitting contact with the load spring to prevent wear and fretting of the load spring.
