Will Bearing Buddies Prevent Water from Getting into Hub

Question:

My boat trailer has a thread hub with a 2.243 inside diameter, but will the threaded area allow water to pass once I have inserted the Bearing Buddy? The Vortex plastic protector screw in with an o-ring has cracked and Id like to replace with a Bearing Buddy, Thanks,

Bearing Buddies like # BB2240 are waterproof. They are commonly used in boat applications so you would not have to worry about them allowing water past them into your hub. Based on the dimensions of your hub these are the correct fit.

I attached a review video for this kit for more info for you to check out as well.
