When oil or grease has to stay inside a gearbox, pump or motor while dust and wash water stay outside, a radial shaft seal does the job. The DBH 5716 is a lip seal with the following published dimensions: shaft 57.15 mm, housing 81 mm, height 17.75 mm, Lx design. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this brand and helps maintenance and purchasing teams confirm the size and find a sealing alternative when the original designation is not available.

The code breaks down into the DBH family and the designation 5716. Lx refers to a single sealing lip with a metal case, a construction meant for rotating shafts that run with lubrication. Before you pull the old part, compare three measurements against your equipment: the shaft seat, the housing bore and the axial space the seal takes up. Those three values are 57.15 mm, 81 mm and 17.75 mm here, and the height in particular tells you how deep the seal sits in the housing.

Seals in this size range turn up in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, transmission shafts and process equipment, as well as in agricultural and industrial machinery that sees dust, washdown water or chips. Picking the right lip and elastomer compound comes down to the fluid being sealed, the operating temperature and how fast the shaft surface moves past the lip.

Installation matters as much as the part number. Inspect the shaft sealing track for burrs, scratches or wear before fitting anything, coat the lip with lubricant, and drive the seal in squarely with a tube or sleeve that presses on the metal case. Keep the lip clear of the punch and of sharp tools, and respect the mounting depth if the housing has a shoulder or radius.

If the Lx version does not suit your assembly, the same radial shaft seal category usually offers an equivalent. Send the code stamped on the part along with the shaft, housing and height measurements and a photo of the installation, and the team reviews sealing options that do the same job.
