7008 CD/P4AQBTC Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 7008 CD/P4AQBTC is a precision quadruplex matched bearing set designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional rigidity and accuracy. This metric angular contact ball bearing features a Moderate (Class C) preload and is arranged in a Quadruplex Tandem Back-to-Back (QBT) configuration. This specific arrangement is engineered to handle combined loads with superior axial rigidity, making it ideal for high-precision, high-stiffness systems where minimal deflection under load is critical. The set is pre-lubricated and adheres to the stringent P4A tolerance class, ensuring consistent, high-performance operation.
7008 CD/P4AQBTC Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- 7008: Basic bearing designation (40mm bore, 68mm OD, 60mm width).
- C: Denotes a 15° contact angle, optimized for high-speed operation and axial load capacity.
- D: Indicates the bearing is part of a matched set.
- P4A: Specifies the tolerance class, indicating very high precision with enhanced dimensional and running accuracy requirements.
- QBT: Defines the matched arrangement as Quadruplex Tandem Back-to-Back, a configuration of four bearings designed to support heavy axial loads in both directions with maximum rigidity.
7008 CD/P4AQBTC Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Exceptional Rigidity and Load Capacity: The Quadruplex Tandem Back-to-Back (QBT) arrangement of four bearings creates an extremely rigid system capable of withstanding significant combined radial and axial loads. This is essential for applications where shaft displacement must be minimized.
- High-Speed Capability: The 15° contact angle and lightweight phenolic cage contribute to lower friction and heat generation, enabling a high limiting speed of 43,000 rpm. This makes it suitable for high-speed spindles.
- Precision Performance: Manufactured to P4A tolerance class, this bearing set guarantees ultra-precise running accuracy and dimensional stability, which is critical for applications requiring high positional accuracy.
- Optimized Material Selection: The use of chrome steel for both rings and balls ensures high durability and fatigue resistance, providing a long operational life under heavy loads.
