The DBH 8179 is a radial shaft seal with an Mx design. It measures 95 mm at the shaft, 130 mm at the housing bore, and 12 mm in height. This lip seal keeps lubricant in and contaminants out of gearboxes, pumps, motors, and similar rotating equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and can help you verify the size before you request a quote.

This seal belongs to the DBH line and carries part number 8179. The Mx design refers to a metal-cased body with a sealing lip, built for rotating shafts that run with lubrication. The lip rides against the shaft to form the dynamic seal, while the outer case stays fixed in the housing bore. As a wear component, the lip eventually hardens or loses elasticity, which is when oil weeping starts to show.

Sizes like this one suit medium-diameter transmission shafts. You will find it in gearboxes, reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, rollers, and mixers, as well as in machine tools and process equipment where the lubricated side must stay separated from the surroundings. Its job is twofold: hold the lubricant inside the assembly and block dust, water, or particles from getting in, which helps protect bearings and gears.

Before installing, inspect the shaft surface. It should be smooth and free of grooves or burrs, since any mark on the sealing track will speed up lip wear. Coat the lip with lubricant before pressing it in, and use a tube or press that contacts the outer edge only, never the lip. Confirm that the shaft, bore, and height match the original housing, and check the housing for play or deformation.

To quote the 8179, send the dimensions of your old seal: shaft diameter, housing diameter, and height. With those three figures we can locate an equivalent in the same brand or in another line we carry. We can also confirm whether the Mx design fits your application or whether a different lip variant would work better. The more details you provide about the equipment, the faster we can respond.

MR Industrial Accessories works with bearings, power transmission, and seals, so we can also assist with installation questions or replacement selection. If the seal sits inside an assembly, it is a good moment to inspect the bearings and shaft before you close everything up.
