Why use a Bearing Gard?
- Extend rotating equipment life and improve reliability
- Prevent contamination ingress – Extend oil and bearing life – Eliminate #1 cause of rotating equipment failure
- Provide long term oil retention – Reduce bearing and lube operating temperature – Extend bearing and lubrication life – Improved housekeeping and safety
- Added protection at shutdown – Shut-off O-ring blocks air transfer
- Create a positive return on investment – An average investment per pump or motor can prevent maintenance and repair costs

Bearing Gardâ„¢ Bearing Isolator
Bearing Gard™ protection technology delivers reliable isolation from contamination to keep bearings running cleaner longer and directly assist equipment reliability by creating a strong barrier against external contamination.
- Directly assists equipment reliability by creating a strong barrier against external contamination.
- Static protection is assured by an internal O-ring between the rotor and stator.
- Dynamic protection is provided by a tortuous labyrinth that effectively repels severe environmental conditions.
- Standard design accommodates axial shaft movement of 0.63 mm (0.025 in) TIR
- Static sealing quickly transitions to non-contacting operation for consistent performance and will not wear on the shaft or equipment.
- Oil retention features work to keep oil inside the bearings and off the ground
