71811 CD/HCP4 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71811 CD/HCP4 is a single-row angular contact ball bearing engineered for applications demanding high precision and superior rotational accuracy. As a P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class bearing, it is designed to handle combined loads, primarily thrust loads, with high reliability. Its compact design, featuring a 9mm width, makes it ideal for space-constrained, high-performance assemblies. The combination of a ceramic ball material and a phenolic cage contributes to its high-speed capabilities and reduced weight.
71811 CD/HCP4 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 71811 | Basic bearing series and size designation (55mm bore, 72mm OD). |
| C | Specifies a 15° contact angle, optimized for high-speed applications requiring high thrust load capacity. |
| D | Indicates the bearing is supplied with a preload for enhanced rigidity and precise shaft positioning. |
| HC | Signifies the use of Hybrid Ceramic balls (ceramic balls with steel rings), offering benefits like higher speed potential and longer service life. |
| P4 | Denotes the high-precision tolerance class (equivalent to ABEC-7), ensuring minimal runout and vibration for ultra-precise applications. |
71811 CD/HCP4 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Speed Performance: The phenolic resin cage and hybrid ceramic balls work in tandem to significantly reduce centrifugal forces and friction, enabling a high limiting speed of 32,000 rpm. This makes it a true high-speed bearing.
- High Rigidity & Precision: The application of a preload eliminates internal clearance, resulting in superior shaft rigidity and rotational accuracy, which is critical for machine tool spindles and other precision equipment.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The 15° contact angle is engineered to efficiently handle significant thrust loads in one direction, while also supporting moderate radial loads.
- Reduced Weight & Inertia: The combination of ceramic balls and a lightweight phenolic cage lowers the overall bearing weight (0.073 kg), reducing starting and driving torque for improved dynamic response.
- Wide Operating Range: The bearing is lubricated and operates effectively within a temperature range of -30°C to 110°C, ensuring reliability in various environments.
