The DBH 6233 is a radial shaft seal, also called an oil seal, designed to keep lubricant in and contaminants out where a shaft rotates inside a housing. Its designation 6233 corresponds to a 15 mm shaft, a 35 mm housing bore and a 7.50 mm overall height, with the Lx design using a single lip and spring for lubricated rotating service. Maintenance teams encounter this size in pumps, electric motors and gearboxes, and it is a common replacement item when leaks or contamination appear.

Read the code before you order: 6233 tells you the size group, so the critical figures are shaft 15 mm, housing 35 mm and width 7.50 mm. The Lx configuration means one sealing lip with a spring, a standard arrangement for rotating shafts that run with oil or grease present. The sealing element is made from elastomers selected for resistance to oils and greases, while the outer metal case holds the seal firmly in the housing bore.

You will find this seal in centrifugal pumps, small electric motors, gear reducers, compressors and transmission equipment. It performs two jobs at once: it stops oil or grease from escaping, and it blocks dust, water and particles from reaching bearings and bushings. Because the section is compact, the 6233 fits equipment with limited radial space where dependable sealing is still required at moderate speeds.

Installation is straightforward but unforgiving of poor preparation. Check the shaft for burrs or wear and make sure the housing is clean and undistorted. Lubricate the lip with the same oil or grease used in the application, then press the seal in squarely with a proper tube or press. When selecting a replacement, account for shaft speed, operating temperature and the fluid being retained. If the shaft is splined or rough, consider a seal with an additional lip or a wear sleeve.

If you need a cross-reference for the 6233, send the code or the three dimensions through WhatsApp or email. The team can review options in the same DBH category or in other brands supplied, keeping the required dimensions and design. Quotes are prepared by part number, and questions about the application are welcome so the correct seal is confirmed before installation.
