The DBH 5338 radial shaft seal is a lip seal for rotating shafts. It keeps lubricant in the housing and blocks dust, water, and other contaminants from entering. The seal has a 38 mm shaft, 56 mm housing, and 10 mm height, and is press-fitted into the housing while its flexible lip runs on the shaft. It is a common component in pumps, motors, gearboxes, and other industrial equipment where reliable sealing matters.
This oil seal follows the Lx design with standard dimensions: shaft 38 mm, housing 56 mm, height 10 mm. The sealing lip is made of an elastomer that resists oils and greases, providing tightness during continuous rotation. The outer metal case holds the seal firmly in the housing. It serves as a direct replacement for equipment that uses this specific size.
Typical applications involve rotary motion where lubricant must be retained: centrifugal pumps, electric motors, gearboxes, reducers, transmission shafts, and process equipment. It also appears in agricultural, textile, and food machinery. The radial design suits shafts running at moderate speeds and operating temperatures within the usual range of standard elastomers.
During installation, make sure the shaft is free of burrs or wear and that the housing is clean and undamaged. Lubricate the lip before inserting the seal, then press it in with a suitable tool, applying even force on the metal circumference. Do not strike the lip. Selection depends on speed, temperature, and the fluid involved; if you are unsure, consult us with your equipment data.
