When a rotating shaft needs a dependable barrier between lubricant and the outside environment, the DBH 1015 radial shaft seal is built for that job. Its A 190 design uses a sealing lip together with a metal outer body, so it presses into the housing and wipes against the shaft. Shaft diameter is 49.20 mm, housing diameter is 66.57 mm, and the height reads 6.50/14.48 mm, a stepped measurement that reflects two different sections: the lip and the outer cover. That geometry suits cavities with a shoulder where axial room is tight.

Reading the code helps when you are matching a replacement. The 1015 number identifies this seal within the DBH line, while A 190 describes the lip and metal-case configuration that holds up to press-fit installation. The two height figures are not a range; they describe the lip portion and the cover portion separately, which is why the seal seats correctly against a machined shoulder. Confirm all three values, shaft, housing and height, against the original part before ordering.

You will find this seal in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors, and belt or chain drives. In each case it keeps oil or grease where it belongs and keeps dust, chips and water out, which protects bearings and gears from premature wear. Plants in food, chemical and process environments also rely on seals like this one, since lubricant containment supports hygiene and reduces unplanned downtime.

Installation quality decides how long the seal lasts. Clean the shaft and bore, remove burrs and scratches, and coat the lip with the same lubricant used in the equipment. Drive the seal in with a tool that contacts the metal cover only, never the lip, so the sealing edge stays true. Shaft-to-housing alignment matters just as much; a small offset will shorten seal life. Compare the three critical dimensions with the old part, and if the cavity allows, consider an auxiliary lip or a heat-resistant material.

If the housing shows wear, an oversized cover or a repair sleeve may be worth discussing before you simply reorder the same size. Send the code 1015 or your measured dimensions and our team can review equivalents from the brands we supply, keeping the critical dimensions intact. Photos of the old seal or caliper readings help us confirm the match the first time.
