What if the bearing is always covered with contaminants?
Answer
This is a situation where no matter how much grease you have going into the bearing, it will never be enough. A bearing which is "gobbed out" will not allow heat to be displaced, resulting in high temperatures which melt the grease, and lead to premature bearing failure. Always be alert for bearings in this situation to avoid possible problems.
