Instead of a plain dust cap, it functions as a pressurized bearing cover system: a spring-loaded piston maintains a safe 3 psi of pressure inside the hub, which keeps grease pushed against the seals and keeps water and road dirt out. The self-regulating pressure relief valve automatically releases excess grease during servicing or heat buildup, protecting the inner seal from damage caused by overpressurization while keeping the bearing properly lubricated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the 2328SS is built to hold up under saltwater exposure, making it a common choice for boat trailers as well as RVs, ATVs, and horse and utility trailers. It is manufactured in the USA and is quality inspected for a precise fit. Installation is straightforward: measure the hub to confirm proper fit, then tap the bearing protector into place using a wood block and hammer. If it does not fit securely, do not force it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bearing Buddy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2328SS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits Hub Inside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.328 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.33 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roller Bearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 x 4 x 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Count:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 count\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 650209431046\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eTrailer hubs with a 2.328 inch inside diameter, including boat trailers, ATVs, utility trailers, and horse trailers\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eNo OEM cross-reference numbers listed\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size hub does the Bearing Buddy 2328SS fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 2328SS is sized for trailer hubs with a 2.328 inch inside diameter; measure your hub before ordering to confirm a secure fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the outside diameter of this bearing protector?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bearing Buddy 2328SS has an outside diameter of 2.33 inches, which is designed to press into a hub with a 2.328 inch inside diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 2328SS made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, chosen for durability in saltwater conditions on boat trailers as well as use on RVs, ATVs, and horse and utility trailers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the pressure relief system work?\u003c\/strong\u003e A spring-loaded piston inside the 2328SS maintains about 3 psi of pressure in the hub, automatically releasing excess grease so the inner seal is not damaged by overpressurization while keeping the bearing lubricated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this bearing protector keep water out of the hub?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the pressurized design of the Bearing Buddy 2328SS is intended to keep grease in and water and dirt out of the wheel bearing hub.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the 2328SS installed?\u003c\/strong\u003e Measure the hub to confirm proper fit, then tap the 2328SS into the hub using a wood block and a hammer; if it does not seat securely, stop and do not force the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many bearing protectors come in one package?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bearing Buddy 2328SS is packaged as 1 count, meaning one bearing protector per unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the weight of the 2328SS?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bearing Buddy 2328SS weighs 1.9 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Bearing Buddy 2328SS suitable for boat trailers used in saltwater?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, its stainless steel construction is built to resist corrosion in saltwater environments, making it suitable for boat trailer applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for the Bearing Buddy 2328SS?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for the Bearing Buddy 2328SS is 650209431046.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 2328SS made in the USA?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Bearing Buddy 2328SS is manufactured in the USA and is quality inspected for a precise fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat type of bearing is the 2328SS designed for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bearing Buddy 2328SS is designed for use with roller-type wheel bearings in trailer hubs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bearing Buddy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031068516571,"sku":"B-B-2328SS","price":45.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/7184ax8YueL.jpg?v=1785207890","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/bearing-buddy-2328ss-stainless-steel-bearing-protector-for-2-328-inch-hubs-boat-and-utility-trailers","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
