The DBH 6245Sil is a radial shaft seal, also called an oil seal, that keeps lubricant in and contaminants out where a rotating shaft passes through a housing. It measures 17 mm at the shaft, 28 mm at the housing bore and 7 mm in height, and it uses the Lx lip configuration. That combination makes it a common replacement item in pumps, small motors, gearboxes and other power transmission assemblies.

The part number 6245Sil carries the size and style in one code. The three dimensions to match are shaft 17 mm, housing 28 mm and width 7.00 mm. The Lx designation describes a single lip with a metal outer case: the lip contacts the rotating shaft, while the case is press-fit into the housing bore. In service, the seal holds grease or oil on the inside and blocks dust, water and particles from entering.

You will find this size in centrifugal and gear pumps, low-power electric motors, gearboxes, transmission housings, compressors, fans, and washing or process equipment. It also appears on machine tool shafts and on agricultural or material handling machinery that runs continuously in dirty conditions. In each case, the seal protects the bearing and the lubricant from outside contamination.

Installation requires a clean shaft with no burrs, scratches or marks, and a sealing surface with the correct hardness and finish. A damaged shaft will prevent the lip from sealing, leading to lubricant loss. The housing bore must be round and free of dents so the seal seats without distortion. When replacing a seal, also inspect the bearing and the lubricant, because a leaking seal can indicate axial play, eccentricity or excessive temperature.

To request a quote for 6245Sil, send the dimensions of the old seal — shaft, housing and height — along with a photo or the number stamped on the body. With that information, we can locate an equivalent in the same brand or another line while keeping the lip design and case type. We can also advise whether the original seal has an auxiliary lip or a spring that should be retained.

MR Industrial Accessories supplies the DBH brand and handles seals and oil seals for maintenance and replacement work.
