1218-K C/4 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1218-K C/4 is a metric double row angular contact ball bearing designed for applications requiring exceptional rigidity and precise operation. Featuring a 1:12 tapered bore for secure shaft mounting, this precision bearing excels at handling significant radial loads. Its double row construction provides a compact, high-capacity solution, making it ideal for machinery where space constraints and high rigidity are critical. The bearing comes pre-lubricated and is manufactured from high-grade chrome steel for durability and reliable performance.
1218-K C/4 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| K | Indicates a tapered bore with a 1:12 ratio, designed for precise mounting on adapter sleeves or withdrawal sleeves. |
| C/4 | Specifies the radial internal clearance group. C/4 corresponds to a CN clearance, which is a normal clearance group suitable for most common operating conditions. |
1218-K C/4 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row angular contact design provides superior rigidity and enables the bearing to support substantial radial loads, making it highly stable under demanding conditions.
- Precision Tapered Bore: The 1:12 tapered bore ensures a tight, interference fit on the shaft when used with an adapter sleeve, eliminating creep and enhancing rotational accuracy.
- Optimized Material Selection: The combination of a chrome steel ring and ball construction with a stainless steel cage offers excellent wear resistance and corrosion protection, contributing to a long service life.
- Ready-to-Install: The bearing is pre-lubricated, simplifying installation and providing immediate operational readiness.
