The structure comprises a resilient sealing ring (20) including parts (30) which have, radially inwardly thereof, a rigid ring (18) which is adjacent the radially inner faces of the sealing ring parts (30). The sealing ring parts (30) are between the further ring (18) and the radially inner faces of the tubular components. The gap, measured radially, between the radially outer surface of the rigid ring (18) and the inner faces of the components is less than the uncompressed thickness of the sealing ring parts (30) measured in the radial direction.
