For equipment that needs a reliable barrier between lubricant and the outside environment, the DBH 5956 radial shaft seal is a standard choice. It fits a shaft of 41.28 mm, a housing bore of 69.85 mm and has a width of 6.35 mm. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this brand and can help you confirm that the seal matches your application.

The DBH 5956 is a radial lip seal with the Mt design, which means it has one sealing lip and a spring. The spring keeps the lip in contact with the shaft, while the elastomer body seals against the housing. This arrangement works well on rotating shafts that need to hold oil or grease in and keep dust, water and other contaminants out.

Typical installations include gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and transmission shafts. The seal also appears in agricultural machinery and process equipment where moderate speeds and normal temperatures are the norm. In these settings, the seal helps reduce maintenance and extends the life of bearings and other components.

When installing the DBH 5956, inspect the shaft for hardness, roughness and any burrs or marks that could harm the lip. Apply lubricant to the seal before pressing it in, and use a tool that pushes on the outer diameter without shock. The housing must be clean and undistorted. If vibration or misalignment is present, a more rigid design or a seal with an additional lip may be better.
