    Purchased as a replacement for a bearing buddy that flew off my trailer. Original lasted about 1year. This time I added a couple of steps during install that the trailer company did not. 1- install with wet chromate primer on mating surface. 2- before final seating apply a bead of sealant around the circumference of the mating edge then drive the bearing buddy the rest of the way in. No problems since. Some people drill, tap, and install a set screw. As far as this seller product was as described, good delivery and works well to keep water out and bearings serviced.

    took very little tapping of a hammer to et these to seat and greasing was easy. instructions are good and they keep my bearings cool and prevent water from creeping in on my boat trailer

    Greater than one week

    Installed the first 3 like a charm. The fourth one would not stay in the hub. Read fine print on instructions and I have to take the hub off, get race numbers, mail the bearing buddy and numbers back to them and they will send me another one that I pay shipping for. I just cleaned up my old cap and put it back on. Wont be buying Bearing Buddys again.

Bearing Buddies for Boat Trailers

Trailering, even a short distance, heats the hubs. When the wheels are submerged during launching, the hubs suddenly cool and the air inside the unprotected hubs contracts, forming a vacuum which draws in water through the rear seals. There is no such thing as a rotating seal that stays perfect. Water and grit thus drawn into the hubs relentlessly destroy bearings. When properly installed and maintained, these little marine Bearing Buddy guard wheel bearing system from failure and eliminates bearing repacking. Boat trailer wheels can be completely submerged.

Utility Equipment, ATV, Horse, Camping, Snowmobile and other occasional used trailers

These tow trailers, because they are not used regularly, are also subject to bearing corrosion and failure from condensation moisture from air sucked into hot hubs as they cool. Moisture stays in the hubs causing rust and pitting until they are reheated when the trailer is used again.
On any vehicle, protecting your wheel bearings from dirt, dust, water, salt, sand and other contaminants is critical, so when it comes to using grease caps, you don"t have much of a choice. That"s their job. You either use them and your wheel bearings will remain useful, or you don"t, and your wheel bearings wear out in a hurry.
