A radial lip seal in the DBH line, the 9472 keeps lubricant inside the housing and keeps dust, water and particles out along a rotating shaft. Its code resolves to three measurements: shaft 28 mm, housing 60 mm, width 8 mm, in the Lx design. Equipment built around a 28 mm shaft commonly uses this size as a service replacement.

Reading the number is straightforward once you know the order: d 28 mm is the shaft the lip rides on, D 60 mm is the bore it presses into, and h 8 mm is the section width. The Lx designation describes how the lip and outer body are arranged. Because the section is narrow, the seal fits into compact housings while still doing its job.

You will run into the 9472 wherever a shaft turns and oil or grease has to stay separated from the surroundings: gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, electric motors, conveyor rollers and machine tools. It also serves as a closure on bearings and housings that run under permanent lubrication. Since 28 x 60 x 8 mm is a standard envelope, plants with that bore already defined tend to keep it on the shelf.

Before pressing one in, look at the shaft: no burrs, no deep scoring across the sealing track, and a housing free of dents. Coat the lip with lubricant, then seat the seal square to the shaft, driving on the outer edge with a proper support tool. Rotation speed, temperature and the fluid being sealed all influence the choice; on equipment with heavy vibration or grit, consider a version with a dust lip or a different elastomer.

When you need a cross, give us the complete seal reference plus the three dimensions and a photo of the housing. That is enough to search the same series or another brand MR supplies. We can also tell you whether Lx suits your case or whether a different lip style or material makes more sense.

The DBH brand sits within the seals and oil seals range MR Industrial Accessories distributes. To get a quote, message the part number 9472 by WhatsApp or email with the dimensions and what the equipment does, and the team will come back with the option that fits.
