Description

DBH 5491 is a radial shaft seal reference, within Seals. Request a quote for 5491 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The DBH 5491 radial shaft seal is a lip seal designed to block the passage of oil or grease on rotating shafts and prevent the ingress of dust and water. It is press-fitted into the housing and runs on the shaft with a flexible lip that maintains sealing. It is a common wear part in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and power transmission equipment, and is replaced when lubricant leakage or contaminant ingress appears.

This item is a DBH 5491 oil seal with the following dimensions: shaft diameter 45 mm, housing diameter 66 mm and height 6.00 mm. The indicated design is Lx, which corresponds to the lip and case configuration. These are the values you must verify before ordering: the seal is identified by these three dimensions and by the lip type. If your shaft or housing differs, a different size is required.

Radial shaft seals of this type are used on shafts that rotate inside a fixed housing: gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, motors, rollers, mixers and power transmission equipment. They also appear in applications where grease must be retained in bearings or where water and particles must be kept out. In all these cases the seal is an economical and frequently replaced barrier, so it is advisable to have the exact size identified.

For installation, the housing must be clean and free of burrs, and the shaft free of splines or marks that could cut the lip. It is recommended to lubricate the lip before inserting it and to use a tube or support bushing to avoid deforming it. Selection depends on shaft speed, temperature and the fluid to be retained; if these data are not defined, consult us and we will guide you. Do not force the seal with direct blows on the lip.

If you cannot find code 5491 or need a nearby size, send us the shaft, housing and height dimensions, plus a photo or the housing drawing. With that we search for the equivalent in the same brand or in another line we carry. We can also verify whether the Lx design is suitable for your application or whether another lip type is preferable.

MR Accesorios Industriales carries the DBH brand as an official brand within its line of seals and oil seals. If you already have the code, send it via WhatsApp along with the quantity and we will reply with the quote. If you are unsure about the size, write to us anyway: we will help you confirm it before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the dimensions of the DBH 5491 oil seal?
It corresponds to a 45 mm shaft, a 66 mm housing and a 6.00 mm height. These three dimensions define the mounting. If your shaft or housing has a different size, an equivalent seal with the correct dimensions must be found.
How do I know if the Lx design is the one I need?
The Lx design describes the shape of the lip and the case. To confirm it, you need to check shaft speed, lubricant type and whether there is pressure. If you do not have these data, send us a photo of the old seal or the housing and we will verify it.
Can I request an equivalent if 5491 is not available?
Yes. Send the shaft, housing and height dimensions via WhatsApp. We search for the equivalent in DBH or in another brand we carry. We can also offer a nearby size if the housing allows it.
