The DBH 6116Sil is a radial shaft seal that keeps lubricant in and contaminants out of rotating equipment. Its Lx design features a metal case that press-fits into the housing and a sealing lip that runs against the shaft. You will find it in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and other transmission assemblies where continuous rotation demands reliable sealing.

This seal carries the code DBH 6116Sil. The dimensions are shaft 31.75 mm, housing 44.56 mm and height 6.35 mm. The Lx designation indicates a single lip with a metal outer case, a common configuration for lubricated rotating shafts. The 6116Sil portion of the code identifies the specific size and style within the DBH line. These figures come directly from the manufacturer's data sheet for this part number.

Seals of this size are typically found in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors and machine tools. They also appear in bearing arrangements where oil or grease must stay contained and dust, water or particles must be excluded. As a wear component, the seal should be inspected whenever leaks or unusual noises develop at the shaft.

Proper installation starts with clean, burr-free shaft and housing surfaces. Lubricate the lip before sliding the seal into place, and press it in squarely so it sits perpendicular to the shaft without uneven impact. When selecting a replacement, consider shaft speed, operating temperature and the lubricant in use. If the shaft shows wear, a seal with an additional lip may be appropriate. Always verify the actual dimensions against the data sheet before fitting.
