The DBH 6472 is a radial shaft seal built around a metal case and a sealing lip. It keeps lubricant where it belongs and blocks dust, water and particles from reaching the rotating shaft. Shaft 60.33 mm, housing 88.42 mm, height 17.46 mm. The 6472 code pins down that exact size inside the DBH line, so it drops into any assembly already machined for these figures without touching the bore or the shaft.

Reading the code helps you order the right part the first time. The 6472 block covers the three measurements above, while DBH identifies the line and Mx describes the seal construction: a single lip on a metal case for rotating shafts. Keep the old seal or its markings on hand when you cross-reference, since two seals can look alike at a glance and still differ in height or bore.

Seals in this size range turn up in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, reducers and other power transmission equipment. The job is always the same: hold oil or grease in and keep contamination out, which protects bearings and gears from the abrasive wear that follows. This footprint suits medium-sized machinery, so it is common on plant floors and in maintenance cribs.

Installation rewards a few minutes of care. Confirm the bore and shaft match the listed values, coat the lip with the lubricant it will see in service, and face the lip toward the fluid side. The sealing zone on the shaft should be free of burrs, splines and deep grooves. A worn housing can often be recovered with a repair sleeve, and keeping shaft and bore aligned pays off in seal life.

Need a substitute from another manufacturer? Send the 6472 code or your measured dimensions and we will search for an option with the same shaft and housing fit. Where the cavity allows, a different height can also work. Tell us the fluid and the operating temperature and we can steer you on lip profile and material.
