The DBH 5970 radial shaft seal is a lip seal mounted between a rotating shaft and a fixed housing to retain lubricant and block the entry of dust, water or particles. Its dimensions of 44.45 mm shaft, 75.28 mm housing and 6.35 mm height correspond to the Lt design, intended for reduced axial spaces. It is used in pumps, electric motors, gearboxes and transmission equipment where bearings must be protected and lubrication maintained in continuous service.

This item is a radial shaft seal from the DBH brand, identified with the part number 5970. Its published attributes are: shaft diameter 44.45 mm, housing diameter 75.28 mm, height 6.35 mm and Lt design. The Lt design corresponds to a seal with a sealing lip and a low-section metal body, suitable for housings where the available depth is limited. Before mounting, verify that the shaft and housing match these three dimensions, because a difference of tenths prevents correct fit.

Typical applications for a seal of this size include centrifugal pumps, electric motors, reducers, transmission shafts and process equipment with grease- or oil-lubricated bearings. In all these cases the seal serves two functions: preventing lubricant leakage to the outside and stopping contaminants from reaching the bearing. It is also used in equipment exposed to water splash or fine dust, provided the lip material is compatible with the fluid and the working temperature.

To select and install it correctly, take into account the peripheral shaft speed, the service temperature and the type of lubricant. The lip must be lubricated before inserting the shaft, and it is advisable to use a guide or chamfer to avoid damaging it during assembly. The seal is inserted perpendicular to the shaft, with uniform pressure on the metal body, never on the lip. If the shaft shows wear or grooves, consider a repair sleeve or an alternative size before installing the new seal.

If you need an equivalent or a nearby size, send us the part number 5970 along with the shaft, housing and height dimensions you have on the equipment. It also helps to send a photo of the old seal or the housing where the brand and number are legible. With that data we verify whether there is a direct alternative in the same series or whether a change of section is required. Do not replace by approximation without confirming the three dimensions, because radial and axial fit is critical to prevent leaks.
