71808 CD/P4DBC Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71808 CD/P4DBC is a precision angular contact ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional rotational accuracy and rigidity. This duplex back-to-back (DB) arrangement provides superior stiffness and moment load capacity, making it ideal for high-precision spindles and machinery. The bearing comes pre-lubricated and is manufactured to P4 tolerance class, ensuring minimal runout and smooth, quiet operation under high-speed conditions. Its compact design and moderate preload (Class C) deliver reliable performance for applications where precise shaft positioning is critical.

| 71808 | Basic bearing series, indicating a metric, angular contact design with a 40mm bore. |
| C | 15° contact angle, optimized for combined loads. |
| D | Duplex bearing (two single bearings paired). |
| P4 | High precision tolerance class for superior running accuracy. |
| DB | Back-to-Back arrangement, providing high rigidity against moment loads. |
71808 CD/P4DBC Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Moment Load Capacity: The duplex back-to-back (DB) configuration creates a wide, stable support system that significantly increases stiffness and resistance to tilting moments, ensuring precise shaft alignment under heavy combined loads.
- Optimized for Combined Loads: The 15° contact angle is engineered to efficiently handle simultaneous radial and axial loads, a common requirement in precision machinery.
- High-Speed Performance: The lightweight phenolic resin cage minimizes centrifugal forces, reduces friction, and contributes to the high limiting speed of 56,000 rpm. The standard lubrication ensures consistent performance across this range.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to P4 tolerance class with tight dimensional control on bore, outside diameter, and width, this bearing guarantees exceptional running accuracy and low vibration levels.
