DBH 5294 belongs to radial shaft seal, part of our Seals range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for 5294 and any equivalents.

The DBH 5294 is a radial shaft seal built for rotating shafts, sized 32 mm at the shaft, 50 mm at the housing bore and 10 mm wide. It keeps lubricant in and contaminants out of gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and power transmission equipment. Its Lx construction uses a single sealing lip with a spring and no secondary dust lip, which suits moderate operating conditions. It is part of the seals and oil seals line we supply.

Reading the code: 5294 is the size and construction reference within the DBH line, and the three numbers that matter for fit are shaft 32 mm, housing bore 50 mm and width 10 mm. Lx tells you the seal has one spring-loaded lip and no dust lip. This is a press-fit component: it seats into the housing bore and its lip rides against the rotating shaft. It is not intended for reciprocating motion or for high-pressure service.

Where it shows up: gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, conveyor rollers and power transmission assemblies. In each case the seal forms the barrier between the oil or grease inside and the air, dust, water and particles outside. Agricultural machinery, road machinery and general industrial equipment with continuously rotating shafts are also common homes for this size. Its compact envelope makes it a frequent choice on low and medium power equipment.

Selection checks before you order: confirm the shaft diameter sits within the usual tolerance range, typically h11 or similar, and that the housing bore has suitable roughness and hardness. Lubricate the lip before pressing the seal in, and inspect the shaft for burrs, scratches or wear marks that could cut the lip. Peripheral speed and operating temperature both influence how long the seal lasts, so review the manufacturer's data if your application runs beyond standard values. Pressing with the wrong tool is a common cause of lip damage and early leaks.

If you need a replacement or an equivalent, the fastest route is to send us the code 5294 or the measured shaft and housing dimensions. A photo of the old seal or the housing drawing works too. We review options within the same DBH brand and across the other lines we carry. All three values have to line up: shaft diameter, outer diameter and height.
