The DBH 8940 radial shaft seal is a lip seal mounted on the shaft and against the housing to contain lubricant and stop the ingress of dust, water or particles. Due to its dimensions of 60 mm shaft, 80 mm housing and 8.00 mm height, and its Lx design, it is used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and transmission equipment that work with medium-section shafts. MR Accesorios Industriales carries it as part of its line of seals and oil seals.

This item is a DBH radial shaft seal with designation 8940. Its published attributes are: shaft diameter 60 mm, housing diameter 80 mm, height 8.00 mm and Lx design. The Lx design corresponds to a seal with a sealing lip and an outer metal body, intended for housings that require a firm fit and controlled removal. The 8.00 mm height defines the width of the cavity where the seal must fit. These are the only dimensions we confirm for this part number; any other dimension must be checked against the manufacturer's data sheet.

Typical applications for a seal of this size and configuration include gearboxes, speed reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors and power transmission equipment. In all these cases, the seal performs two functions: retaining the oil or grease inside the assembly and preventing contaminants from entering from outside. It is also found in machine tools, conveyors and process equipment where the shaft rotates at moderate speeds and the operating temperature is stable.

To install a radial shaft seal, it is advisable to verify that the shaft and housing are clean, free of burrs or drag marks, and to lubricate the lip before inserting it. The seal must enter perpendicular to the shaft, without direct blows on the lip. If the housing has a shoulder or a chamfer, using a guide sleeve is recommended. Seal selection depends on shaft diameter, housing diameter, available height, rotational speed and type of lubricant. With that data, the appropriate design and lip material are chosen.

If you need a seal equivalent to the DBH 8940 or a nearby size, the most practical approach is to send us the full part number, the shaft, housing and height dimensions, and a photo or sample of the old seal. With that data we can look for an alternative within the same radial shaft seal category or suggest a compatible replacement. We can also advise you on the Lx design and its variants depending on the type of housing and the mounting direction.
