Anyone using the Iturra thrust bearings with O ring seals?

I need new bearings and am curious how these perform over a standard
bearing.

Can the O ring be removed for cleaning?

ASFIK, they are on there so you don't have to clean them.

My son does inline speed skating. The bearings have seals and they need
a cleaning to get out the fine dust.

If you can pop the seal, clean them, give them 1 drop of oil they run
nice. The steel covers with crimps don't open.. And can't be serviced.
But many other types are serviceable.

I have a sonic cleaner for the bearings. First clean them in a course
bath, then the ultrasonic bath, and they are good as new.
