The DBH 8960 seal is a single-lip radial seal, designed to retain lubricant and exclude contaminants on rotating shafts. Its dimensions of 55 mm shaft diameter, 100 mm housing and 10 mm height make it suitable for equipment with medium-section shafts. It is press-fitted into the housing and runs on the shaft with a flexible lip that compensates for small misalignments. It is a common wear part in pumps, reducers and motors, where timely replacement prevents leaks and greater damage.

This item is a DBH radial shaft seal, identified with part number 8960. Its dimensions are 55 mm shaft diameter (d), 100 mm housing diameter (D) and 10 mm height (h). The design is Lx, which indicates a single-lip configuration with a spring. The DBH brand is a brand that MR carries, so the product meets the manufacturer's specifications. The seal consists of a metal outer ring, an elastomeric lip and a spring that ensures continuous contact on the shaft.

Typical applications for this seal include centrifugal pumps, gearboxes, electric motors, compressors and transmission equipment. In all these cases, the seal serves to seal the passage of oil or grease to the outside and prevent the entry of dust, water or particles. Its size of 55 x 100 x 10 mm is common on process pump shafts and medium-sized reducers. It is also used in agricultural and industrial machinery that requires reliable sealing under continuous rotation conditions.

For installation, check that the shaft has a smooth surface free of burrs, with adequate hardness to prevent premature wear. The housing must be clean and undamaged; it is recommended to lubricate the lip with the same oil used in the equipment before inserting it. Installation is done with a mounting tool that presses on the outer ring, never on the lip. It is important to maintain concentricity and avoid blows that deform the seal. If the shaft has a groove or wear, consider using a repair sleeve or changing the lip position.
