The DBH 5597 radial shaft seal is a lip seal designed to retain lubricant and exclude contaminants on rotating shafts. Its nominal dimensions —40.48 mm shaft diameter, 53.97 mm housing diameter and 7.93 mm height— make it suitable for equipment where axial space is limited and a reliable seal is required. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this official brand for industrial applications that demand operational continuity.
This item is a radial shaft seal from the DBH line, identified by the code 5597. According to the product page data, the shaft diameter is 40.48 mm, the housing diameter is 53.97 mm and the overall height is 7.93 mm. The Mz design indicates a configuration with a sealing lip and metal body, intended for press-fit mounting in a cylindrical housing. These values define interchangeability; any replacement must match them.
Seals with this geometry are used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, transmission shafts and process equipment. Their function is twofold: to prevent oil or grease leaks to the outside and to block the entry of dust, water or particles that accelerate wear on bearings and gears. In food, chemical or water treatment plants, this type of seal helps keep the lubricant clean and extends the service life of the assembly.
To select correctly, verify that the shaft diameter and housing diameter match those of the original part. The 7.93 mm height determines the housing depth: if it is shallower, the seal may be left exposed; if it is deeper, it will not seat. During installation, lubricate the lip, avoid impacts and use a support tube that transmits force onto the outer ring, never onto the lip. A shaft with scratches or excessive wear shortens the life of the seal.
If you cannot find the code 5597, we can look for a nearby size or an equivalent from another brand. For that, send us the shaft diameter, housing diameter and height you need, along with a photo or the code of the old seal. We can also evaluate variants with different lip configurations or materials, as long as the critical dimensions remain within the permissible tolerance.
