7018 CD/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 7018 CD/P4A is a single-row angular contact ball bearing engineered for high-precision applications requiring exceptional rotational accuracy and rigidity. Designed to accommodate primarily axial loads in one direction and combined loads, its 15° contact angle and P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class make it an ideal choice for machine tool spindles and other high-performance machinery. The bearing is preloaded and pre-lubricated, ensuring immediate operational readiness, high running accuracy, and a compact design that saves space in demanding arrangements.
7018 CD/P4A Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix Code | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| CD | Indicates a specific optimized internal design and contact angle for high rigidity and precise operation. |
| P4A | Denotes a high-precision tolerance class (equivalent to ABEC-7), with enhanced dimensional and running accuracy for demanding applications. |
7018 CD/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Precision: The single-row design with a 15° contact angle and P4 tolerance provides high stiffness and minimal runout, essential for applications like machine tool spindles.
- Optimized Load Capacity: Engineered to handle significant axial loads in one direction and combined (radial and axial) loads, with a dynamic load rating of 17,842 lbf and static load rating of 17,212 lbf.
- High-Speed Capability: The phenolic resin cage offers low friction and high strength, contributing to a high limiting speed of 15,000 rpm and stable operation at high velocities.
- Pre-Lubricated & Ready-to-Use: Factory-applied lubrication and preload ensure immediate performance, reduced setup time, and smooth operation from startup.
