Sealed bearings to me are regular bearings with a metal or plastic "dust cap". That means that they will accept liquids including "Chain Lube", lube of choice for all my old bearings that haven't failed. In a pressurized can with a plastic snooz. Stick the nozzle right at the sealing media adjacent to the inner race and give her a good squirt. I repeat several times a season. If you can do it and roll the bearing so much better.

It sticks to metal and has an excellent lubricant. Saves a lot of worry about failures and hassle removing and replacing bearings that may just need a little rejuvenation. Mark
