On the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB1980A-SS air more easily pushed past the internal O-Ring which means the grease is going to try and push all the air out from inside the hub. It is important to remember you want to try and fill the bearings and hub completely before installing the Bearing Buddy. You should never rely on the Bearing Buddy to fill bearings with no grease inside them.
