A radial shaft seal such as the DBH 5728 sits between a turning shaft and a stationary housing. It keeps lubricant where it belongs and keeps dust, water and particles out. The three figures to match are shaft 60.33 mm, housing 92.03 mm and height 17.85 mm, a combination that fits assemblies where there is not much room along the axis. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and can help you confirm the choice.

The item belongs to the DBH line and carries the code 5728. Reading the number is straightforward once you know the layout: the code identifies the size, and the Lx designation tells you the lip arrangement, in this case a single lip with a spring for lubricated rotating shafts. The lip rides against the shaft while the outer diameter presses into the housing, and that press fit is what forms the static seal. You will find it in drive shaft and gearbox assemblies as a routine replacement part.

Seals of this size turn up in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, rollers and other power transmission equipment. Two jobs are done at the same time: oil or grease stays inside, contaminants stay outside. A worn seal shows itself through leakage, new noise or dirt working its way in, and any of those will shorten the life of bearings and gears nearby. That is why it pays to look at the seal during every preventive maintenance stop.

Installation is mostly about preparation. Check the shaft for burrs or deep marks where the lip contacts it, and make sure the housing bore is clean and not deformed. Put lubricant on the lip before you slide the seal in, keep it square to the shaft and do not hit the spring. Speed, temperature and the fluid being retained all influence which seal is right. A shaft that is already worn sometimes calls for an offset lip instead. MR Industrial Accessories can walk you through that decision.

For an equivalent, the fastest route is to send the code 5728 or the three dimensions by WhatsApp. With that information we can check options within the DBH line or from the other brands we carry, and we verify dimensions and characteristics against the technical data sheet before quoting. Questions about lip design or seal material for a particular application are welcome as well.

The DBH brand forms part of our seals and oil seals range. If the seal is going into equipment that is currently down for maintenance, send the code 5728 on WhatsApp and we will get you the quote along with whatever details you need to make the purchasing call.
