71816 CD/P4DGB Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71816 CD/P4DGB is a super-precision angular contact ball bearing designed for applications demanding exceptional rotational accuracy and rigidity. As a universal matchable (SU) bearing supplied in a light preload (Class B) duplex set, it is engineered to handle combined loads—simultaneously supporting significant radial and axial loads. Its P4 tolerance class ensures ultra-precise running, making it ideal for high-speed spindles and other high-precision machinery. The open design, when properly lubricated, facilitates optimal performance in demanding operational environments.
71816 CD/P4DGB Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 71816 | Basic bearing series and size designation (80mm bore, 100mm OD, 20mm width). |
| CD | Indicates a duplex bearing pair in a universal matchable (SU) arrangement. This configuration provides high rigidity and is pre-set for immediate installation. |
| P4 | Denotes a high-precision tolerance class with extremely tight dimensional and running accuracy tolerances. |
| DGB | Signifies a light preload (Class B) applied to the duplex set. This preload eliminates internal clearance, enhancing system stiffness and rotational accuracy. |
71816 CD/P4DGB Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Load Capacity: The duplex (CD) design and 15° contact angle create a highly rigid bearing system capable of withstanding combined radial and axial loads. The light preload ensures minimal deflection under load, critical for machining accuracy.
- Super-Precision Performance: Manufactured to P4 tolerance class, this bearing guarantees exceptional running accuracy and low vibration levels, which is paramount for high-speed applications.
- Optimized High-Speed Operation: The phenolic resin cage is lightweight and robust, contributing to lower centrifugal forces and enabling a high limiting speed of 28,000 rpm. The open design allows for efficient lubrication management.
- Universal Matchability (SU): As a universal matchable bearing, any two bearings from this series can be paired in various configurations (back-to-back, face-to-face, or tandem) to meet specific application requirements for rigidity and moment load capacity.
