1220-KM Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 1220-KM is a metric double row angular contact ball bearing featuring a 1:12 tapered bore for precise shaft mounting. Engineered for demanding applications, this bearing excels in handling combined radial loads with high rigidity due to its double-row design. Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel with a brass cage, it delivers reliable performance in high-speed operations up to 4,800 rpm. Its open design, pre-lubricated and with standard CN radial internal clearance, ensures optimal performance across a wide temperature range from -30°C to 110°C, making it a robust solution for precision machinery.
1220-KM Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix Code | Technical Meaning | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| -KM | Tapered Bore (1:12) | Enables precise interference fit on the shaft, enhancing stability and minimizing slippage under heavy loads. |
| (No Seal Suffix) | Open (Unsealed) | Allows for high-speed operation and custom lubrication regimes, suitable for controlled environments. |
1220-KM Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double row ball bearing construction provides superior radial stiffness and can accommodate significant combined loads, ensuring stable operation under varying force conditions.
- Precision Tapered Bore: The 1:12 taper facilitates exact mounting and dismounting, allowing for controlled preload adjustment and improved rotational accuracy.
- High-Speed Capability: The robust brass cage maintains ball alignment and reduces friction, supporting a limiting speed of 4,800 rpm for dynamic applications.
- Material & Durability: Components made from chrome steel offer high hardness and wear resistance, while the CN radial clearance provides optimal internal fit for general operating conditions.
- Pre-Lubricated & Ready-to-Use: Factory-applied lubrication ensures immediate operation and reduces initial setup time, compatible within the specified temperature range.
1220-KM Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Industrial Gearboxes and power transmission systems requiring high radial load capacity and precise shaft alignment.
- Machine Tool Spindles and other precision machinery where high rigidity and tapered bore mounting are critical for accuracy.
- Material Handling Equipment such as conveyor pulleys and heavy-duty rollers.
- Pumps and Compressors operating at moderate to high speeds with combined loading conditions.
- Agricultural and Construction Machinery components demanding robust bearing performance in harsh environments.
