[QUOTE="Universe, post: 8128637, member: 155152"] The problem is if you pack too much grease into a sealed bearing, and through running it warms/expands and has to force some out, then it's no longer sealed... and you have the worst of all situations, as potentially it will loose it all over time. Rightly or wrongly we have used sealed bearings for areas where you won't re-grease i.e cannot get to, or cannot be arsed.... and use normal where you can & will grease them. This is industrial use mind you with a lot of 24/7 running. The preferred is greasable bearings every time for us. But hey, what do I know 🙂 [/QUOTE]
