The DBH 8384/85 is a radial shaft lip seal in the Lx design. It sits in the housing bore and rides on the rotating shaft, holding lubricant in and keeping dust, water and particles out. The size is compact: 17 mm at the shaft, 32 mm at the housing and 7.00 mm of height, a combination that shows up in equipment built around small shaft diameters.

How to read the size: shaft 17 mm, housing 32 mm, height 7.00 mm. The Lx designation describes the lip and outer case arrangement that defines this series, and 8384/85 is the number you use to order or to look up a comparable size. Because the section is thin, the seal suits housings with limited wall thickness and shafts of small cross-section.

Where this size is found: small gearboxes, low-power electric motors, small centrifugal pumps, compressors, machine tools and transmission units that need oil or grease kept apart from the surrounding environment. Fan, mixer and conveyor shafts in light production or laboratory settings also use it, particularly where radial space is tight and the shaft turns at moderate speed.

Before fitting, confirm the shaft measures 17 mm, the housing bore 32 mm and the seat width takes the 7.00 mm height. Lubricate the lip, then press the seal in with a tool that contacts the outer edge only, never the lip. Inspect the sealing track for burrs or deep marks, since these reduce service life. On equipment with strong vibration, a support or flange that holds alignment is worth considering.

For an equivalent, give us 8384/85 together with the shaft, housing and height measurements taken from your equipment. A photo of the removed seal or the housing drawing also helps. With that information we can check for an alternative in the same series or in another brand we supply, keeping the mounting dimensions unchanged. The part number plus the dimensions are enough to begin.

Quotes are handled by WhatsApp or email: send the part number and dimensions and our team replies promptly. We can also suggest equivalents and help you choose the right seal, and we will answer questions about the Lx design or about installation through the same channel.
