1218KJ Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1218KJ is a metric double row angular contact ball bearing engineered for demanding applications requiring high rigidity and precision. Featuring a 1:12 tapered bore for secure shaft mounting, this bearing is designed to accommodate combined radial loads effectively. Its double row construction provides exceptional stiffness and stability, making it an ideal choice for machinery where high precision and reliability are paramount. The open design allows for versatile lubrication options to suit specific operational needs.
1218KJ Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| K | Indicates a tapered bore with a 1:12 ratio, facilitating precise axial positioning and a tight interference fit on the shaft. |
| J | Specifies the steel cage material, providing robust construction suitable for high-speed operation and demanding conditions. |
1218KJ Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row ball bearing design significantly increases radial stiffness and enables the bearing to support substantial radial dynamic loads (12,870 lbf).
- Precision Tapered Bore: The 1:12 taper ensures a secure, concentric fit on the shaft, minimizing slippage and maintaining high running accuracy.
- Optimized for Performance: Manufactured from chrome steel for both rings and balls, ensuring high durability and fatigue resistance. The standard CN radial internal clearance is suited for a wide range of common industrial applications.
- Versatile Operation: With a limiting speed of 5,300 rpm and a temperature range from -30°C to 110°C, this bearing offers reliable performance under various operating conditions.
