Bont Comes Out With Electronic Bearing Cleaner

A Better Way to Clean Bearings?

Just in time for the holidays, Bont is coming out with a new electronic bearing cleaner.

It's a hand-held, motorized device that cleans one bearing — standard (608) or micro (688) — at a time.

Insert a bearing, dip the device into a cleaning solution and press the button. A motor spins the bearing, cleaning out "all the dirt, oil and even mild rust," Bont says.

The device runs on four AA batteries.

Price is $60 (U.S.). Batteries and cleaner are not included.

The bearing cleaner will be available starting Dec. 19th. It can be pre-ordered on Bont's online store.
