The DBH 9438 is a radial shaft seal with an Lx design, sized for a 44 mm shaft, a 70 mm housing bore and an 8 mm height. It keeps lubricant in and contaminants out of gearboxes, pumps and other power transmission assemblies. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this seal as part of its seals line for customers in the US and Latin America.

This seal carries the DBH brand and part number 9438. Its three key dimensions are shaft 44 mm, housing 70 mm and height 8 mm, combined with an Lx design. Those figures tell you the seat it needs: the lip contacts a 44 mm shaft, while the outer body presses into a 70 mm bore with 8 mm of depth available. The low profile helps in tight spots where a taller seal would not fit.

You will find seals of this size in gearboxes, electric motors, centrifugal pumps, mixers and belt- or chain-driven transmission equipment. In every case the job is the same: hold oil or grease inside the assembly and block dust, water and particles that would otherwise speed up wear on bearings and gears. It also works as a secondary closure on fan and conveyor shafts.

Before installing, inspect the 44 mm shaft for burrs or deep marks in the lip contact area, and make sure the 70 mm housing is clean and not deformed. Lubricate the lip, then press on the outer ring only, never on the lip. If the equipment runs with high vibration or temperature, consider a design with a spring or a different material, always keeping the 44 x 70 x 8 dimensions.

If you need an equivalent to the 9438, send us the part number along with the shaft, housing and height measurements. With that information we can search for an alternative in the same category or confirm whether an Lx variant with a different height exists. We can also advise if the housing can take a seal with an extra lip or a dust guard, depending on the contamination in your equipment.
