The DBH 8916 oil seal is a radial seal with a 55 mm shaft diameter, 68 mm housing diameter and 8 mm height, in the Lx design. It is used to retain lubricant and exclude contaminants in rotating equipment, protecting bearings and guides. Its flexible lip compensates for minor misalignment and vibration. It is a wear part that should be replaced when oil leakage or dirt ingress appears. MR Accesorios Industriales carries it as part of its seals and oil seals line.

This item is a DBH radial shaft seal, identified by the code 8916. Its dimensions are 55.00 mm shaft diameter, 68.00 mm housing diameter and 8.00 mm height. The Lx design corresponds to a single-lip seal with a spring, suitable for rotating shafts. The 8916 designation makes it easy to locate in the catalogue and compare it with other options in the same family. It is a precision part that works in direct contact with the shaft and the housing, so its dimensions must be respected when selecting it.

It is used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, rollers and transmission equipment where a shaft rotates inside a housing and the lubricant must be contained. It also performs an exclusion function: it prevents dust, water or particles from entering the bearings. In food, process or material handling plants, this type of oil seal appears in critical equipment and its failure is usually detected by oil stains or bearing noise.

To install it, check that the shaft has no burrs or deep marks in the contact area and that the housing is clean and free of deformation. Lubricate the lip before inserting it and avoid striking it during installation: it is best to use a support tube on the outer ring. If the shaft shows wear, consider a neighbouring size or a seal with the lip in a different position. The selection depends on speed, temperature and the fluid to be retained.

If you need an equivalent or a different size, send us the code 8916 and the shaft, housing and height dimensions. We can also look for alternatives in other brands or configurations if the Lx design does not suit your equipment. The more data you give us — type of lubricant, working temperature and revolutions — the better we can guide you.
