The DBH 8917 is a radial shaft lip seal that fits on the shaft and seals against the housing bore. It keeps lubricant in and blocks dust, water and other particles from entering. The size is 42 mm shaft, 70 mm housing and 10 mm width, with an Lx design. You will find this size in pumps, electric motors, gearboxes and other power transmission equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and can help you confirm the right seal for your application.

This seal has a single lip and a metal case. The Lx designation tells you it is a lip seal with a metal outer body, made for rotating shafts that run with lubrication. When you order, check three things: the shaft diameter (42 mm), the housing bore (70 mm) and the available width (10 mm). Any mismatch means the seal will not seat or seal properly.

Seals of this size show up in centrifugal pumps, electric motors, gearboxes, conveyor rollers and similar transmission parts. Their job is always the same: hold the oil or grease inside and keep contaminants out so bearings and gears do not wear early. In low-pressure assemblies, the same seal often works as a secondary barrier.

During installation, protect the lip from burrs, threads and keyways. Coat the lip with the same lubricant used in the equipment, and make sure the housing bore is clean and free of marks. Seal choice also depends on shaft speed, operating temperature and lubricant type. If you do not have those values, check them with the equipment manufacturer or with our team.

If you need an equivalent, send the complete seal part number, the shaft, housing and width dimensions, and a photo or sample if you have one. With that information we can search for an alternative in the same brand or in another line we carry.
