Abstract:
[Problem] To provide a method for manufacturing a sealing device having high pressure-resistance and high durability.Provided is a method for manufacturing a sealing device to be provided between a shaft and an inner surface of a shaft hole in which the shaft is provided, the method comprising: a step for forming an atmosphere-side rigid ring by forming a through-hole in a rigid body by a punching-out process; a step for causing a reinforcement ring for reinforcing an elastic ring to contact the elastic ring in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the shaft, wherein the elastic ring is made of an elastic body, is attached to a liquid-side rigid ring made of a rigid body and disposed inside the shaft hole, is disposed radially inward of the liquid-side rigid ring, and has formed thereon a seal lip that slidably makes sealing contact with the shaft; and a step for causing the atmosphere-side rigid ring to contact the reinforcement ring in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the shaft so that a surface contacted by an end surface of a punch during the punching-out process of the atmosphere-side rigid ring is positioned on an opposite side to the reinforcement ring.
