The DBH 5962 oil seal is a single-lip radial shaft seal that mounts on the shaft and seals against the housing to retain lubricant and block the entry of dust, water or particles. It is used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and power transmission equipment where a shaft rotates inside a housing. Its size of 54.00 x 73.02 x 16.66 mm corresponds to an Mx design, intended for continuous service with oil or grease lubrication.

This item is a DBH radial shaft seal with the designation 5962. Its catalogue attributes are: shaft diameter d = 54 mm, housing diameter D = 73.02 mm and height h = 16.66 mm. The Mx design corresponds to a spring-loaded sealing lip, with a metal case and elastomer, that runs on the shaft and is press-fitted into the housing. That combination of dimensions and design defines its use: a 54 mm shaft rotating inside a 73.02 mm bore, with a housing width of 16.66 mm.

Typical applications for a seal of this size appear in equipment with medium-diameter transmission shafts: gearboxes, reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors and machine tools. In all these cases the seal performs two functions at the same time: it prevents oil or grease from leaking out and blocks contaminants from reaching the bearings and gears. It is also found in continuous process equipment, where scheduled seal replacement is part of preventive maintenance.

To install a radial shaft seal, check the condition of the shaft first: free of burrs, without wear and with the right surface roughness so the lip seals without being cut. The housing must be clean and free of deformation, and the seal is inserted perpendicular, with a flat-faced tool, down to the bottom of the seat. Before fitting it, lubricate the lip with the same oil or grease used in the equipment. If the shaft shows a wear groove, consider a seal with an offset lip to run on a new track.

If you need an equivalent, send us the part number 5962 together with the shaft, housing and height dimensions, or directly the designation marked on the old seal. With that data we will indicate the alternative from the same family or from another brand that MR carries. We can also advise you if the housing accepts a different width or if the lip design should be changed according to the type of lubricant and the rotation speed.
