Bearing Buddy Operation

Replace your existing grease cap with a Bearing Buddy to ensure a safe, easy way to monitor and control the level of grease in your axle hub. To adjust the amount of grease in the hub, use a grease gun to add more through the appropriate fitting. Adding grease moves the Bearing Buddy spring-loaded piston outward 1/8".

The O-ring inside the barrel of the Bearing Buddy maintains a seal from the outside. The interior of the Bearing Buddy is pressurized, preventing water from entering the barrel and diluting the grease.

An automatic pressure-relief feature is built into the Bearing Buddy. When the device is full, grease will seep around the edges of the piston and into the barrel. This prevents overfilling that can damage the inner seal.

You can manually check the grease level in your Bearing Buddy by pressing on the edge of the piston. If you can rock or move the piston, the hub is properly filled.

I bought these to put on my harbor freight folding trailer. Fits great and have no worries of bearing seizures. Will be pulling this trailer for thousands of miles on a road trip this summer. The 2047 model fits the 12inch tire folding trailer. 46423

I can't say enough about etrailer's excellent sales & customer service. They have always gone the extra "mile" to make sure I got the right parts and on time. The bearing buddies were just the right size for my hubs. 42915

I ordered a set of these to put on my Harbor Freight folding trailer. Towed it 220 miles at 65 to 75 MPH and the hubs never got hotter than a warm paper cup of coffee. I will now be ordering two more sets of these for my boat trailer and camper. If you have a trailer without these these, this should be the first thing you replace! Don't need anything other than a block of wood and a small sledge hammer (How often do you hear that!) to install and then you'll also need grease and a grease gun. ETrailer was naturally expedicious about the order. Here sooner than expected.42430

The product is good, but he shipping leaves something to be desired. More communication would be better, as well as a better shipping process. I suppose you get what you pay for when it comes to shipping.23975
