The DBH 8721Pol radial shaft seal is a lip seal mounted on the shaft and inside the housing to contain lubricant and block the entry of contaminants. Its Lx-Bidi design combines a main lip and a secondary lip that seal in both directions, making it suitable for equipment where oil or grease must remain confined and dust or water cannot enter. It is used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and industrial drives.

This item is a radial shaft seal from the DBH brand, identified by the designation 8721Pol. Its dimensions are 40.00 mm shaft diameter, 55.00 mm housing diameter and 8.00 mm height. The Lx-Bidi design indicates a double-lip configuration: the main lip retains the lubricant and the secondary lip provides an additional barrier against dust, water or particles. The lip elastomer works on the rotating shaft, while the outer diameter maintains the fit in the housing.

Typical applications for a 40x55x8 mm seal with a double lip include gearboxes, speed reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors and drive equipment. In these assemblies, the seal prevents oil leaks to the outside and protects the bearings from the ingress of dirt. It is also used on shafts of fans, mixers and conveyors where there is exposure to environments with moderate dust or humidity.

To correctly select this seal, verify that the shaft diameter is within the tolerance recommended for radial shaft seals and that the housing has the diameter and depth suitable for the 8.00 mm height. The shaft surface must be ground and free of burrs or marks that could damage the lip. During installation, lubricate the lip with the same oil or grease used in the equipment and use an installation tool that prevents deforming it. If the shaft shows wear, evaluate a nearby size or a design with an auxiliary lip.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Lx-Bidi design mean on this seal?
Lx-Bidi indicates a double-lip configuration: a main lip that retains the lubricant and a secondary lip that acts as a barrier against dust and water. This combination improves sealing in environments with moderate contamination and in equipment where the lubricant must remain confined.
Can I replace an 8721Pol seal with another one of similar dimensions?
Yes, as long as the shaft, housing and height dimensions are compatible. A replacement may vary in lip design or material, but it must maintain the fit and the sealing function. Consult us with the exact dimensions of your equipment to evaluate an alternative.
How should I install this seal to prevent leaks?
Lubricate the lip before installing it, verify that the shaft is clean and free of burrs, and install it with a tool that presses uniformly on the outer diameter. Avoid striking the lip and make sure it sits perpendicular to the shaft for correct sealing.
