The DBH 8246 is a radial shaft seal that keeps oil or grease contained on rotating shafts while blocking dust and moisture. It presses into a cylindrical housing and its flexible lip rides against the shaft to maintain a dynamic seal. You will find this type of seal in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and other transmission equipment where lubrication has to stay in place.
This seal carries the DBH brand and part number 8246. Its dimensions are shaft 20 mm, housing 31.85 mm and height 8.00 mm. The Mx-R designation refers to a lip-and-metal-case construction intended for press fitting into a housing. Reading the code this way makes it straightforward to check the seal against your equipment and to compare it with other references.
Typical applications include centrifugal pump shafts, gear reducers, electric motors, compressors and power transmission drives, as well as agricultural machinery, conveyors and hydraulic systems. In all of them the seal holds lubricant in and keeps contaminants out. When a seal fails, bearings and gears wear faster, so replacing it on time protects the rest of the assembly.
To select the right seal, confirm that the shaft, housing bore and height match your equipment. The Mx-R design points to a particular lip and case geometry, so keep the original height whenever there is room, to avoid altering the seat. During installation, coat the lip with the same oil or grease used in service, press the seal in perpendicular to the shaft and avoid hitting it. Misalignment or a damaged lip will cause early leaks.
