For rotating shafts that need reliable lubricant retention, the DBH 5872Sil radial shaft seal is a direct-fit option. It measures 42 mm at the shaft, 60 mm at the housing and 12.00 mm in height, and uses the Lz lip configuration. The elastomeric sealing lip works with a metal outer case to hold position in the housing.
The DBH 5872Sil belongs to the family of radial shaft seals, often called oil seals. Its code, 5872Sil, is the reference to use when checking catalogs or replacement lists. The three key dimensions are shaft 42 mm, housing 60 mm and height 12.00 mm. The Lz designation describes a particular lip and body arrangement intended for moderate-speed operation where dust or dirt may be present.
You will find this type of seal on gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors, drive shafts and agricultural machinery. Its job is to keep oil or grease inside the assembly and to block foreign particles from reaching the bearings. In dirty environments, the Lz lip geometry provides extra protection that helps components last longer.
Before fitting the seal, confirm that the shaft and housing match the stated sizes. Clean the shaft and remove any burrs or marks, then apply a light lubricant. Use an installation tool that presses on the outer diameter of the seal, not on the lip. For high-speed or high-temperature service, contact our team to review material and design options.
