The DBH 9150 is a radial shaft seal built to keep lubricant where it belongs and keep dust, water and other particles out of a rotating assembly. Its size callout is 38 mm on the shaft, 62 mm in the housing bore and 7.00 mm of height, and it comes in the Lx design. Gearboxes, pumps, electric motors and power transmission equipment are the usual homes for a seal this size. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and can help you confirm the correct size for the job.

Start with the designation: DBH is the seal family and 9150 identifies this particular item. Read the numbers as shaft diameter (d) 38 mm, housing diameter (D) 62 mm and height (h) 7.00 mm. The Lx version is a single lip with a spring, made for lubricated rotating shafts. The elastomeric lip rides against the shaft while the spring holds the lip in contact, and the outer body presses into the housing bore. It is good practice to check these values against the manufacturer's data before the seal goes in.

Seals of this size turn up in gearboxes and reducers, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, compressors and other power transmission equipment, as well as machine tools, process equipment and conveyors. In each case the job is the same: hold oil or grease in and keep contaminants out, which protects the bearings and gears around it.

Selection and installation come down to a few checks. The shaft diameter should sit within the recommended tolerance and the running surface should have the right roughness. The housing bore needs to be clean, free of burrs and with a sound entry chamfer. Lubricate the lip before fitting, keep the seal square and do not shock it or push it in the wrong direction. If the shaft is already worn, a seal with the lip in a different position is worth considering.

Need a cross-reference? Send the code 9150 along with the shaft, housing and height measurements, or a photo of the old seal or the assembly drawing. We use that information to check a compatible replacement.
