The DBH 1240Vit radial shaft seal is a lip seal that mounts on the 55 mm shaft and seals against a 72 mm housing. Its stepped height of 8.00/13.30 mm and the A 400 design make it suitable for housings with a deep bore, where the lip must sit properly on the shaft. It is used in rotating equipment to contain lubricant and stop the entry of dust, water or particles. MR Accesorios Industriales carries it as an official brand.
This item is a radial shaft seal from the DBH line, identified as 1240Vit. Its nominal dimensions are 55 mm shaft, 72 mm housing and 8.00/13.30 mm height. The A 400 design corresponds to a construction with a sealing lip and metal body that fits into the housing under pressure. The double height indicates that the seal has a deeper section, intended for housings with a shoulder or to improve the stability of the lip during rotation.
Typical applications for a seal of this size include gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, transmission shafts and process equipment with continuous rotation. In all cases it performs the function of retaining the oil or grease inside the assembly and preventing contaminants from entering from the outside. It is a wear part: over time the lip hardens or becomes marked and lubricant loss appears.
To mount it, verify that the 55 mm shaft has no burrs or deep marks on the sealing surface, and that the 72 mm housing is clean and free of deformation. Lubricate the lip with the same grease or oil as the equipment before inserting it, and tap evenly on the outer ring, never on the lip. If the shaft shows wear, evaluate a neighboring size or a seal with an offset lip so as not to repeat the failure.
If you need an equivalent or a close size, send us the code 1240Vit along with the shaft and housing dimensions, a photo of the part and, if possible, the drawing or original designation. With that data we can look for alternatives within the DBH line or from other brands we carry, always respecting the mounting dimensions. You do not need to have everything: with the code and a reliable measurement we can already advise you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the DBH 1240Vit seal?
- It corresponds to a 55 mm shaft, a 72 mm housing and a height of 8.00/13.30 mm. The design is A 400. These are the dimensions shown in the manufacturer's data sheet and the ones you need to compare before replacing the part.
- How do I know if this seal replaces the one I have mounted?
- Measure the shaft diameter, the housing inner diameter and the available depth. If they match 55 mm, 72 mm and the height range 8.00/13.30 mm, the 1240Vit is a candidate. If in doubt, send us the dimensions via WhatsApp and we will verify it.
- What do I need to send to request a quote?
- The code 1240Vit, the shaft and housing dimensions, and a photo of the part if you have it on hand. With that we can quote the seal or look for an equivalent alternative within the brands we carry.
