7008 CE/HCP4AH1 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 7008 CE/HCP4AH1 is a high-precision angular contact ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional accuracy and performance. This single-row bearing features a 15° contact angle and is supplied with a preload, making it ideal for applications requiring high rigidity and precise rotational accuracy. Its construction with a phenolic cage and ceramic balls contributes to its suitability as a high-speed bearing, capable of handling combined radial and axial loads efficiently. Manufactured to a P4A tolerance class, it guarantees superior running accuracy for critical machinery.
Model Code Breakdown
- 7008: Basic series number, indicating a metric angular contact ball bearing with a 40mm bore and 68mm outside diameter.
- C: Denotes a 15° contact angle.
- E: Indicates optimized internal design and P4A tolerance class.
- HC: Specifies the use of Hybrid Ceramic balls (Silicon Nitride).
- P4A: Defines the high-precision tolerance class, superior to ABEC 7.
- AH1: Indicates the bearing is supplied with a light preload.
7008 CE/HCP4AH1 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Hybrid Ceramic Construction: The combination of chrome steel rings and ceramic balls significantly reduces friction, heat generation, and wear. This enables higher limiting speeds, longer service life, and improved performance in lubricant-starved conditions.
- High Rigidity and Precision: The preload eliminates internal clearance, resulting in greater shaft rigidity, reduced vibration, and enhanced positional accuracy, which is critical for machine tool spindles and other precision equipment.
- Superior High-Speed Performance: The lightweight phenolic resin cage is designed for high rotational speeds, offering excellent acceleration and deceleration characteristics. The ceramic balls further contribute to this by reducing centrifugal forces.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The 15° contact angle is engineered to handle significant combined loads (radial and axial), making it a versatile choice for complex loading scenarios.
