The DBH 9587Vit is a radial shaft lip seal that keeps lubricant inside a housing and keeps dust, water and other contaminants out where a shaft rotates. Its designation tells you the three critical measurements: a 15 mm shaft, a 26 mm housing bore and a 5 mm height. The Mx designation refers to the seal's construction, a sealing lip backed by a spring in a metal outer body. This is the kind of small seal you find press-fitted into covers, crankcases and gear reducer boxes where there is not much room along the shaft.

Reading the code is straightforward once you know the order. The 9587Vit number identifies the item within the DBH line, and the dimensions follow the usual sequence: shaft 15 mm, housing 26 mm, height 5.00 mm. The Mx geometry combines a spring-loaded lip with a metal case that holds the seal in the bore. Because the height is only 5 mm, it suits assemblies with limited axial space.

Typical service includes small electric motors, pumps, gear reducers, fan shafts, machine tools and transmission equipment. Anywhere a 15 mm shaft turns and lubricant has to stay put while outside contamination stays out, this seal is a candidate. It works best when the shaft surface under the lip is ground smooth and carries a steady film of oil.

Installation decides how long the seal lasts. Check that the shaft diameter and finish are correct, with no burrs, nicks or rust pits, and that the housing bore is clean and round. Put a light coat of lubricant on the lip, then press the seal in squarely with a tube or press that contacts the outer edge only. A shaft with play or pitting will leak no matter how accurate the dimensions are.

For a quote on the 9587Vit, send the shaft, housing and height measurements, the design type and a photo of the old seal. Our team checks those details against the DBH range and other brands we supply, and can suggest an equivalent. We can also tell you whether a spring-loaded lip fits your application or whether a different configuration works better.
