For maintenance teams working on rotating equipment, the DBH 5488Pol is a radial shaft seal that keeps lubricant in and contaminants out. Its Lx design uses a single lip with a spring, and the size is given by three measurements: shaft 42.00 mm, housing 60.00 mm, height 10.00 mm. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and helps you confirm the right seal for your unit.

The part number 5488Pol belongs to the DBH line of radial shaft seals. The lip, made of an elastomeric compound, presses against the shaft while the metal outer case sits in the housing bore. That interference fit holds the seal in place. The spring behind the lip maintains contact as the shaft turns, so the sealing action stays consistent under lubrication.

You will find this size in gearboxes, speed reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors, and other power transmission assemblies. Its job is to keep oil or grease where it belongs and to stop dust, water, and particles from getting in. In bearing and bushing arrangements, the same seal often acts as a secondary barrier that protects the lubricant and helps the assembly last longer.

Proper installation makes a difference. Clean the shaft and check for burrs, nicks, or scratches. The sealing surface should have the right roughness for the lip. Apply lubricant to the lip before you slide the seal on. Use a driver that presses on the outer edge, not the lip, and keep the seal square to the shaft. If the housing is worn or the shaft moves, look into another solution. Speed, temperature, and the fluid in use all affect seal selection.

If you need a replacement or an equivalent, send the code 5488Pol or the three dimensions—shaft, housing, and height—along with a photo of the old seal and the housing. That lets us search within the same DBH line or other brands we carry, while matching tolerances and lip type. We can also tell you whether the Lx design fits your operating conditions.
