Vault System Bearings

[jmarty10]

Has anyone ever heard of the Vault system for trailer bearings. I have a 2008 EZ loader trailer and the bearings use a hybrid oil. EZ loader said there is no maintenance for 5 years to these bearings. Has anyone ahd experience with them. The companys name is UFP out of Santa Monica. Sounds pretty good to me.

Some of the newer technology from heavy trucks is being passed to other automotive applications now. Several years ago I worked at a trucking company and they got in new Volvo trucks. The front hubs were sealed and had a sticker on them that said "Service at 1 million miles. Do not add oil or grease". There were a few hard running drivers that hit the million mile mark on their trucks. The hub bearings looked great when they were pulled apart and inspected. They were lubed with a thin, runny, oily grease.
