Note: Bearings rarely fail from defects in
materials or w orkmanship . T he most common
reason for failure is moisture and contamination
w orking its w a y past the protecti v e seals . Bearings
that are g reased will rely upon regular maintenance
to purg e har mful debris from the bearing
area. Sealed bearings rely on an initial fill of
special g rease and a robust integ ral seal to k ee p
contaminants and moisture out of the rolling
elements .
T he sealed bearings require no lubrication or shor t
ter m maintenance . T his minimizes routine ser vice
required and reduces the potential of turf damag e
due to g rease contamination. T hese sealed bearing
pac kag es will pro vide g ood perfor mance and life
