2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as one type of a sealing device used under a temperature condition in which a rubber sealing part such as an O-ring cannot be used, as shown in FIG. 9, a cross section cut along a plane passing through an axis is circular. There is a so-called C-shaped seal 1, which is a hollow metal seal member having a substantially C-shape curved in an arc shape and having an opening groove 1a continuous in the circumferential direction on the inner periphery. The C-shaped seal 1 has a direction (axial direction) in which inner peripheral ends are close to each other in a seal mounting groove S formed continuously in the circumferential direction between two members 2 and 3 connected in the axial direction. The elastic member is interposed in an elastically deformed state as appropriate.
By means of the self-sealing action utilizing the fluid pressure P introduced through the valve member a, leakage of fluid from between the connecting portions of the two members 2 and 3 is prevented.

(2) Due to the reason (1), it is not necessary to make the processing accuracy of the curved portion strict, so that the number of processing steps is reduced and productivity is remarkably improved. (3) For the reason (1) above, inexpensive materials and methods can be used for plating on the surface, so that productivity is significantly improved.
