The DBH 6171 is a radial shaft seal that keeps lubricant in and contaminants out of rotating equipment. It presses into the housing and its flexible lip runs against the shaft to maintain the seal. As a wear part, it should be replaced when leakage or contamination appears. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and helps you match the correct size to your application.

This seal follows the Lx design: a single lip with a spring and a metal case. The dimensions are shaft 57.15 mm, housing 85.63 mm, and height 15.87 mm. Before ordering, confirm these three values on your equipment: the shaft diameter where the lip contacts, the housing bore, and the available width.

Radial shaft seals like the DBH 6171 are common in gearboxes, pumps, motors, rollers, mixers, and transmission assemblies. They retain oil or grease and block dust and water. In dirty, wet, or frequently washed environments, inspect the seal at every maintenance interval. If the shaft shows wear or scratches under the lip, a new seal may not seal properly; you may need to repair the shaft or choose a size that runs on a different track.

When selecting a seal, consider shaft speed, operating temperature, and lubricant type. The lip must stay lubricated; dry installation speeds up wear. Use a press or a tube that contacts the case, not the lip, and make sure it enters straight into the housing. If the housing has burrs or the shaft has a sharp chamfer, protect the lip with tape or a guide cone to avoid cutting it during installation.

To quote part number 6171, send the old seal's dimensions: shaft diameter, housing diameter, and height. With that data we can find an equivalent in DBH or another brand we carry. We can also advise if the original has a different configuration, such as a double lip or reinforced case. The more details you provide about the equipment and part, the faster we can offer a reliable alternative.
