When a gearbox, pump or motor starts weeping oil around the shaft, the usual suspect is the radial shaft seal. The DBH 5198 is a lip seal with a 55 mm shaft bore, an 80 mm housing bore and a 10.00 mm height, built in the Lz design. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and can help you verify the size before you order.
Reading the code: 5198 is DBH's own reference for this seal, so don't treat it as interchangeable with a number from another manufacturer. What actually travels between brands are the three dimensions: d = 55 mm for the shaft, D = 80 mm for the housing and h = 10.00 mm. The Lz designation tells you the seal has a sealing lip backed by a spring, which is the configuration used on rotating shafts that run with oil or grease.
Where it shows up: equipment with a 55 mm shaft is common in the industrial market, so this size turns up in gearboxes, speed reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors and transmission equipment. The job is always the same, hold the lubricant in and keep dust, water and particles out. If the seal has failed, look at the shaft surface as well, not just the seal.
Installation notes: clean the housing and check it for deformation, and inspect the shaft for burrs or a worn track before fitting anything. Coat the lip with the same oil or grease the equipment uses, press the seal in square to the shaft, and avoid hitting the lip directly. A grooved shaft may call for a repair sleeve. Speed, temperature and lubricant type all affect how long the seal lasts, so those three points are worth confirming.
Finding an equivalent: send the original code, a photo of the part and the dimensions you measure with a caliper. With that we can check options in the DBH line or in other brands we carry, and flag anything unusual about the temperature or speed of the application. To request a quote, message the part number on WhatsApp or by email and the team will reply promptly.
