The DBH 5479 is a radial shaft seal with a 148 mm shaft diameter, a 170 mm housing diameter and a 15.00 mm height, built in the Lx design. It keeps lubricant in and contaminants out on rotating shafts in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and power transmission equipment. The elastomeric lip runs against the shaft while the metal case presses into the housing. As a wear part, its service life depends on correct size and lip material selection.

This seal carries the DBH code 5479 and the Lx design. The Lx designation indicates a single lip with a metal case and an auxiliary dust lip, intended for oil- or grease-lubricated rotating shafts. The dimensions read as shaft 148 mm, housing 170 mm, width 15.00 mm. Always verify these three values against the housing before installation.

Seals in this size range appear on large-diameter shafts: speed reducers, centrifugal pumps, mills, mixers, medium- and high-power electric motors, and belt or chain drives. In continuous-process machinery, they stop oil leaks and keep dust or water away from the bearing. When a seal fails here, the signs are lubricant loss, bearing contamination and, over time, premature wear of the shaft or housing.

Selection depends on shaft surface speed, operating temperature, lubricant type and differential pressure. The Lx design with its auxiliary lip suits dusty or splashing conditions. Make sure the housing is clean, free of burrs and at the correct diameter. Press the seal in with a proper tool, never by striking the lip. Lubricate the lip before sliding the shaft through, and do not install on a worn or scored surface.
