This is a genuine bearing buddy hub protector made by the original Bearing Buddy® for 35+ years.  This is Bearing Buddys® part number 1980A-SS.  This is a great bearing buddy to use in salt water since it is stainless steel and therefore will not rust. This bearing buddy measures 1.980 at its base.  It is designed to be used in most 4 or 5 bolt hubs. The blue indicator ring will protrude slightly to let you know when it's full, or when you need to add extra grease.  Bearing buddys put a small amount internal pressure in the hub (about 3psi). When the hub is submerged water cannot enter the hub because of this pressure.  The blue indicator ring will protrude out to let you know when your bearing buddy is full, or sink back in to let you know that you need to add grease.Its a great way to extend bearing life and service your bearings in-between hub re-packs.  Bearing Buddy's help keep dirt and water out of your hubs and bearings.
 
 
Excellent price for the best bearing protectors bar none.
I regularly use mild steel (chrome plated) bearing protectors but was tired of always having to get the Autosol out 4-5 times a year to keep them looking new. For the same price or less, these SS bearing protectors are absolutely the best and only choice. They not only look great and function perfectly, there is little to no outside maintenance whatsoever. Bearing Buddy's the BEST!

Great product! They will not rust where the standard bearing buddies always seem to rust even when not used in salt water.

Good Fit
Received my order of four Bearing Buddy's and a 4-way fitting in short order. Bearing Buddy's installed easily by using a 3 x 3 piece of wood (2x4 will work fine)on end with a heavy hammer or mallet. Using a knee to orient straight, tap to align then tap into hub. I like the blue ring on the expansion chamber, it keeps you from over filling and pressurizing, and blowing-out the rear seal.You need to leave room for expansion and contraction in the chamber.
