The DBH 5208 is a radial shaft seal that keeps oil or grease in and dust or moisture out of equipment with rotating shafts. Its Lz-R design pairs a sealing lip with an outer protective lip, so it handles moderately dirty surroundings. The seal presses into a cylindrical housing and runs on a 40 mm shaft; the outer diameter is 60 mm and the height is 10 mm. It is a common replacement item in pumps, electric motors and gearboxes.

Dimensions for the DBH 5208 are shaft 40 mm, housing 60 mm and height 10 mm. In the Lz-R designation, the Lz-R indicates a sealing lip plus an outer lip that helps retain lubricant and deflect particles. The 5208 code identifies the single-wall radial shaft seal series, built with an elastomer body and a steel spring. Installation is by press fit into the housing, with the lip riding against the rotating shaft to form a dynamic seal.

Typical applications include centrifugal pumps, electric motors, gear reducers, transmission shafts and process equipment. You will also find it in machine tools, agitators and conveyors where a shaft turns and lubricant must stay contained. In areas with dust or chips, the outer lip of the Lz-R design adds a barrier. Because it is a wear part, inspect it at each preventive maintenance interval and replace it if the lip is cut, hardened or has lost elasticity.

During installation, make sure the shaft is clean and free of burrs or scratches, and that the sealing surface is not worn. Coat the lip with the same grease or oil used in the equipment before pressing it in. The housing should be machined to the correct tolerance and without steps. Tap it in evenly with a tube or driver that presses on the outer ring, never on the lip. If the shaft has a deep groove, consider a wear sleeve.

If you need an equivalent, send code 5208 or the dimensions 40 x 60 x 10 mm by WhatsApp or email. We can also look for variants with a different lip design or material to suit the fluid and working temperature. MR Industrial Accessories supplies DBH and provides technical guidance so you select the right part.
