Question:
Do they make a threaded bearing buddy that will screw on to a vortex hub. I would like to replace the plastic covers on this hub.

We do have Bearing Buddys with threads on them, but you'll need to verify fitment on your end:
Stainless Steel - # BB1980T-SS fits a 1.980" hub bore
Stainless Steel - # BB2080T-SS fits a 2.080" hub bore
Stainless Steel - # BB2441T-SS fits a 2.441" hub bore
If you can verify that the threads on your hubs match one of these then you're good to go!
Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
