The DBH 6800 radial shaft seal is a lip seal designed to close off the passage of oil, grease or water on shafts that rotate inside a housing. Its function is to retain the lubricant inside and stop the entry of dust, chips or moisture, protecting bearings, bushings and gears. It is press-fitted into the housing and runs against the shaft surface, which must be ground and free of marks for the lip to seal properly.

This item is an oil seal of A 025 design with the following dimensions: shaft diameter 47.62 mm, housing bore 73 mm and height 12.20 mm. The A 025 design corresponds to a single-lip seal with a spring, with an outer metal case and an elastomer lip that makes radial contact on the shaft. That combination of dimensions places it in a medium size, typical of gearboxes, pumps and power transmission equipment.

The most common applications for an oil seal of this size are gearboxes, speed reducers, centrifugal pumps, mixers, chain conveyors and process equipment where there is a shaft rotating inside a lubricant-filled housing. It is also used in electric motors and machine tools, provided the shaft and housing have the indicated dimensions and the rotation speed is compatible with the lip material.

To select and install an oil seal, it is advisable to verify three things: that the shaft diameter is within tolerance and has adequate hardness and roughness, that the housing has the correct diameter and chamfer so as not to damage the case when pressing, and that the direction of rotation and the type of lubricant are compatible with the lip compound. It is recommended to lubricate the lip before assembly and to use a tube or socket that rests on the metal edge, never on the elastomer.

If you need an equivalent, the most practical thing is to send us the code 6800 along with the shaft and housing dimensions, a photo of the old oil seal and, if possible, the original brand and code. With that data we can look for an alternative from the same series or from another brand that meets the same dimensions and service conditions, without you having to modify the shaft or the housing.
