Pair of opposed inflatable rubber tubes allow object to be moved between them while maintaining pressure seal. Conceived for pressurized wind tunnel into which sensor probes inserted and positioned from outside. Probe moved along seal gap, pushed inward, and/or pulled outward while different pressures maintained inside and outside tunnel. Replaces bulky sealing unit. Adaptable to other situations in which objects must penetrate pressure walls and move along them. Works as well for vacuum chambers and for pressure vessels. Also applicable to dust seals not having to withstand differential pressures.
