A rotating shaft passing through a housing needs a barrier that keeps lubricant in and contaminants out, and the DBH 6162 radial shaft seal does exactly that job. It presses into the housing bore while its flexible lip rides against the shaft surface. The Mz design covers general rotary shaft duty. Dimensions are 62 mm at the shaft, 80 mm at the housing and 9.50 mm in height, which makes this seal a direct replacement candidate on industrial equipment where oil or grease must stay contained.

Reading the designation helps when cross-referencing. Code 6162 belongs to the DBH line and maps to a specific size: shaft 62 mm, housing 80 mm, height 9.50 mm. Mz identifies a radial shaft seal built with a sealing lip and a metal outer body for rotating shaft positions. Confirm both the shaft and the housing bore against these figures before ordering, since a seal that is close but not exact will not seat correctly.

Typical installations include gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, rollers and other power transmission assemblies where a shaft turns inside a housing. Agricultural machinery, conveyors and process equipment also use this type of seal. Treat it as a wear item. Once the lip stiffens, cracks or loses its flexibility, lubricant starts to escape and outside dirt finds its way in, which is the point at which replacement is due.

Selection goes beyond the three dimensions. Shaft speed, operating temperature and the lubricant in use all affect how the seal performs, and the Mz design suits general rotating shaft applications. Correct installation matters just as much: coat the lip with lubricant before insertion, keep the seal square to the shaft axis, and apply force through a tube or press against the outer ring rather than the lip. Any burrs or worn areas on the shaft should be addressed first.

Quoting is straightforward. Send code 6162, or the shaft, housing and height measurements, by WhatsApp or email. A photo of the removed part or the manufacturer's reference works too. From there the DBH line and other options we supply can be checked. An exact match is not always required, and a standard size that fits the same envelope can often serve the same function.
