The DBH 5949 radial shaft seal is a lip seal that closes the passage of oil or grease between a rotating shaft and its housing, while also preventing the ingress of dust, water or particles. It is used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and transmission equipment where lubricant must be retained and bearings protected. Its Mz design and metric dimensions place it in small-shaft applications with a medium-section housing.

This DBH 5949 seal has the following dimensions: shaft diameter 29.59 mm, housing diameter 56.57 mm and height 12.70 mm. The indicated design is Mz, which defines the lip and metal body configuration. It is a single-lip radial shaft seal, designed for rotating shafts with permanent lubrication. Before installing it, verify that the three dimensions match your equipment's shaft and housing, because a difference of tenths changes the fit and sealing.

Typical applications for a seal of this size are gearboxes, reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, fan shafts and power transmission equipment. In all these cases it performs the same function: retaining lubricant inside the assembly and stopping contaminants from entering from outside. It is also used as a secondary closure in housings and hubs where the bearing needs an additional barrier against dust and water.

To select the right seal, in addition to the dimensions, take into account the shaft speed, working temperature and type of lubricant. The lip must rest on a ground shaft surface free of grooves; if the shaft is marked, it is advisable to consider a seal with an offset lip or a wear sleeve. During installation, lubricate the lip, avoid hitting it and verify it with the shaft centered so it does not run at an angle.
