A radial shaft seal like the DBH 9381 keeps lubricant where it belongs and keeps dust, water and particles out of the assembly. It seats in the housing and its lip rides against the rotating shaft. Shaft 38 mm, housing 72 mm, height 10 mm, Lx design. MR Industrial Accessories supplies it as a brand item, and our team can confirm the size or suggest an equivalent for your equipment.

The DBH 9381 is built with the Lx lip and case configuration. Reading the size is straightforward: d is the shaft the lip contacts, D is the bore it presses into, and h is the width across the outside. Here that means shaft 38 mm, housing 72 mm, width 10 mm. The Lx designation describes how the lip and metal case are put together, which is what governs how the seal behaves at a given speed and pressure. Units already running this size can swap it in as a replacement part.

Typical homes for this seal include gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, transmission shafts and process equipment. It also suits conveyors, mixers and machine tools where dust or moisture has to be kept away from the bearings and the lubricant. Where contamination is heavy, it is worth checking whether the lip configuration matches the working conditions before ordering.

Before fitting, inspect both mating surfaces. The shaft should be free of burrs, scoring and uneven wear, and the housing bore should be round with the right surface finish. Lubricate the lip, then press the seal in squarely with a tube or shim rather than tapping the edge. Speed, temperature and the fluid being retained all influence which seal is correct; a new seal will not hold if the shaft is grooved or the bore is out of round.

Need a replacement? Send part number 9381 or the dimensions 38 x 72 x 10 mm through WhatsApp or email. If your shaft or bore measures differently, we can look for an alternative size. We handle seal and oil seal lines and can walk you through picking the right design for the job, so the part is confirmed before anything is quoted.

Message us with DBH 9381 or with the measurements you have. We work with customers across the United States and in several Latin American countries, and we answer quote requests promptly. Questions about fit or installation are welcome before you order.

Frequently asked questions

What size is the DBH 9381 oil seal?
It fits a 38 mm shaft, a 72 mm housing bore and has a 10 mm height. Those are the nominal figures. If your equipment uses a different combination, send us the measurements and we will check for a match.
How can I tell whether this seal replaces the one in my machine?
Compare shaft, housing and height first, then the lip type and material if visible. When all of those line up, it is a direct replacement. If you are unsure, send a photo or the old part number and we will confirm it.
What does the Lx design refer to?
Lx describes how the lip and metal case are configured, not a measurement. Whether it suits your application depends on shaft speed, operating temperature and the fluid involved. Tell us those details and we will point you in the right direction.
