The DBH 9098 is a radial shaft seal that keeps lubricant contained where a shaft exits a housing and blocks dust or water from entering. You will find it on gearboxes, pumps, motors and other transmission equipment. With a 22 mm shaft, 42 mm housing bore and 10 mm height, it is a size that comes up often in maintenance work.

The designation tells you the main dimensions: shaft 22 mm, housing 42 mm, width 10 mm. The Lx configuration is a single lip with a spring, so it suits rotating shafts under permanent lubrication. The elastomeric lip runs against the shaft while the metal case is pressed into the housing. Because it is a wear part, a hardened or marked lip will start to seep oil and the seal should be replaced.

You will see this seal on gearboxes, reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors and belt- or chain-driven transmission equipment. Fan shafts, mixers and conveyors also use it. The job is always the same: hold lubricant in, keep contaminants out. Since the size is common, it is often the first item to inspect when oil appears around a bearing area.

During installation, clean the housing and shaft and check for burrs or deep marks. Lubricate the lip before pressing it in. The seal must go in square, with no direct hits on the lip; use a tube or spacer that contacts the case. If the shaft running surface is worn, a repair sleeve is an option. Speed, temperature and lubricant type all affect selection, so confirm those details before ordering.

If you need an equivalent, send part number 9098 along with the shaft, housing and height dimensions, plus the equipment where it is installed. That lets us look for alternatives in the DBH line or other brands we supply. It also helps to know whether the original seal has one or two lips and whether the shaft turns in one direction or both.
