The DBH 9596 radial shaft seal is a lip seal designed for rotating shafts with an 85 mm diameter, a 125 mm housing and a 12 mm height. Its function is to retain lubricant inside the assembly and block the entry of dust, water or particles that accelerate wear on bearings and bushings. It is press-fitted into the housing and runs on the shaft surface, so the quality of both surfaces defines its service life.

This item is a radial shaft seal from the DBH line, identified by the code 9596. According to the product page data, it corresponds to a shaft diameter (d) of 85 mm, a housing diameter (D) of 125 mm and a total height (h) of 12.00 mm. The indicated design is Lx, a single-lip configuration with a spring that seals in one direction of rotation. It is a standard metric size within the radial shaft seal category, intended for machined housings with compatible tolerance.

Typical applications for a seal of this size appear in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, transmission shafts and continuous process equipment. In all these cases the seal performs two simultaneous functions: it prevents oil or grease leaks to the outside and slows the advance of contaminants toward the bearings. It is also used as a secondary barrier in assemblies where a primary seal already exists and additional protection is sought.

For proper installation, check that the shaft has no burrs, splines or wear in the contact area: a scratched surface ruins the lip within a few hours. Lubricate the lip with the same grease or oil used in the equipment before inserting it, and install the seal with a support tube that pushes on the outer diameter, never on the lip. If the housing has a pronounced chamfer, even better: it facilitates entry without deforming the metal case.

If you need an equivalent from another brand, the most practical approach is to send us the code 9596 along with the shaft, housing and height dimensions. With those three data points we can cross-reference the DBH series with other lines we carry and confirm whether a compatible alternative exists. We can also advise you if the Lx design is not suitable for your application and another lip configuration should be evaluated.

MR Accesorios Industriales carries the DBH brand as part of its seals and oil seals line. If this seal goes on equipment that cannot stop, it is worth identifying the exact size before disassembly. Send the code 9596 or the dimensions 85 x 125 x 12 mm via WhatsApp and we will provide a quote.
