SKF recently introduced the SKF Splashguard, an advanced protection plug for its line of Scotseal TF Hubcaps. The new Splashguard features an exclusion technology with multiple barriers to protect wheel end components from outside contamination, the company said.

Additionally, the SKF Splashguard design includes a hard outer shell that resists power washing and road debris; a pressure sensitive vent that remains closed unless releasing pressure eliminates an entry path for contaminants; and an extended surface for added coverage between the window and plug for better sealing. The Splashguard also features side tabs for easy removal, according to the company.

SKF Splashguards are conveniently packaged in groups of four and sealed in 8.5- by 6-in. plastic bags. SKF Splashguards are available in green and black. A point of sale countertop display with six 4-packs of green Splashguards and six 4-packs of black Splashguards illustrating the features and benefits is available, the maker added.
