When a rotating shaft needs to keep lubricant in and contamination out, a radial lip seal like the DBH 9246Vit does the job. It measures 98 mm at the shaft, 116 mm at the housing bore and 10 mm in height, and its Lx-R-AH configuration combines a main sealing lip with a spring and an auxiliary lip that keeps dust and dirt away from the sealing edge. You will find this seal in gearboxes, pumps, motors and similar industrial equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and helps you confirm the right choice.

The code breaks down simply: DBH is the brand, 9246Vit is the item designation, and the three numbers follow the usual order for oil seals — shaft first, housing second, height last. So you are looking at shaft 98 mm, housing 116 mm, width 10 mm. The Lx-R-AH build tells you what is inside: a sealing lip, a spring to keep pressure on the shaft, and a secondary lip that blocks dust. That elastomer-and-spring combination is what holds the seal tight while the shaft keeps turning.

Where does it fit? Gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, conveyor rollers and power transmission units are the usual spots. In all of them the seal does two things at once: it stops oil or grease from escaping and it keeps particles and moisture from reaching the bearings and gears. Agricultural machinery, mining equipment, processing plants and production lines are common places to find this size.

Installation matters as much as the part. The housing bore should be clean and free of burrs, and the shaft needs the right hardness and surface finish. Put a little compatible grease on the lip before you press it in, and keep the seal square to the shaft as it goes. If the shaft is already worn, you can reposition the lip or use a wear sleeve. Speed, temperature and the lubricant in use all play a role in selection.
