The DBH 8746 is a radial shaft seal built to hold lubricant in place and keep dirt out where a shaft turns. The Lx designation tells you the seal has a sealing lip with a spring and no outer dust lip. You will find this type of seal in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and other transmission equipment. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this brand and helps you match the right seal to your machine.
Code 8746 belongs to the DBH line of radial shaft seals. In the Lx version the lip carries a spring and there is no secondary dust lip on the outside. The seal presses into a cylindrical housing bore while the lip rides on the rotating shaft, forming the barrier that stops oil or grease from escaping and blocks dust and water from entering. The 8746 number makes the part easy to trace in catalogs and parts lists. Ask us for the data sheet if you want to confirm the exact dimensions before ordering.
You will run into seals like the DBH 8746 in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors, machine tools and belt or chain drives. Their job is to keep the lubricant where it belongs and to shield bearings and gears from outside contamination. Agricultural and automotive machinery also rely on them, since a seal that works correctly keeps surrounding components running longer.
Choosing a radial shaft seal means checking the shaft diameter, the housing bore, the width, the lubricant in use, the operating temperature and the peripheral speed. The Lx design fits rotating shafts lubricated with oil or grease. At installation, inspect the lip for damage, coat it with the same lubricant used in service and confirm the spring sits where it should. A worn shaft may call for an offset lip or a wear sleeve instead.
When you need a seal equivalent to the DBH 8746, send the full code together with the shaft and housing dimensions and a photo of the old seal. That is enough for us to search other brands or series that do the same job. We will also tell you if the Lx design is not the best fit for your equipment and whether another lip style or material would work better.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the Lx design mean on the DBH 8746 oil seal?
- It identifies a radial shaft seal that has a sealing lip with a spring and no external dust lip. It retains lubricant and keeps contaminants out on rotating shafts. If your application needs extra dust protection, another design may suit you better.

- Send code 8746 by WhatsApp along with the shaft and housing dimensions and a photo of the seal. With that information we look for alternatives from other brands or series that do the same job and send you the quote.
- What matters when installing a radial shaft seal?
- Check the lip for damage, lubricate it with the same lubricant used in service and make sure the spring is in position. The shaft should be clean and free of burrs. If it is worn, a wear sleeve is an option.
