The DBH 8908 is a radial shaft seal that keeps lubricant in and contaminants out of rotating equipment. With a 42 mm shaft, 68 mm housing and 8.00 mm height, plus Lx design, it fits many standard assemblies. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and helps you confirm the right variant for your application.

This seal carries the DBH brand and the code 8908. Its key measurements are shaft 42 mm, housing 68 mm and height 8.00 mm, and it uses the Lx design. Lx means a single sealing lip with a metal case, so it fits a housing that already has a machined bore. It is a wear part: you replace it with an identical one when you see lubricant leaking or dirt getting in.

You will find seals of this size in gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, transmission shafts and other process equipment with rotating shafts. In every case the job is the same: hold oil or grease inside the assembly and block outside elements that speed up wear on bearings and gears. It also suits equipment exposed to water splash or airborne dust.

Proper installation starts with checking the shaft for burrs or deep marks in the contact area and making sure the housing is clean and not deformed. Lubricate the lip before you push it in, and seat it square to the shaft so the spring does not twist. If the shaft is worn, a wear sleeve is an option. Selection depends on speed, temperature and the fluid involved, so confirm those details before you request a quote.

For an equivalent, send the full part number, the shaft, housing and height dimensions, and a photo of the old seal if you have one. With that information we review options in the same radial shaft seal category and confirm which one fits without machining the housing. We can also tell you if the Lx design is not the best choice for your service conditions.
