Peripheral sealing glands for forming a seal between an elongate member and a substantially flat surface are provided. One method includes providing an at least in part frustoconical shaped skirt through which the elongate member is to pass and defining a deformable upper seal configured to deform about and form a first seal to a periphery of the elongate member, providing a flange depending from a lower periphery of the skirt, and providing a substantially rigid ring structured to bear on the outer surface of the flange so as to apply a substantially consistent pressure to the two or more endless lip seals to form a second seal against the flat surface. The skirt includes a retention flange to removably receive the rigid ring and to permit adjustment of the rigid ring relative to the flange.
A sealing gland to present a first sealing surface about a periphery of an elongate member and a second sealing surface to present at least two endless lip seals to a substantially flat surface, said first sealing surface retained to said periphery of an elongate member by elastic tension thereabout, and said second sealing surface retained to said substantially flat surface by a compression ring and a plurality of fasteners therethrough,
