71824 CD/HCP4 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71824 CD/HCP4 is a single-row angular contact ball bearing engineered for applications demanding high precision and high-speed performance. Designed to accommodate combined loads, it efficiently handles both radial and significant axial loads in one direction. Its construction with a ceramic ball and phenolic cage contributes to lower friction, reduced weight, and superior performance at high rotational speeds. Manufactured to a P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, this bearing is ideal for machine tool spindles and other high-accuracy, high-reliability applications.
71824 CD/HCP4 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- 71824: Basic bearing series, indicating a light-weight, high-precision angular contact design with a 120mm bore.
- C: Represents a 15° contact angle, optimized for high-speed operation and axial load capacity.
- D: Indicates the bearing is supplied with a specific preload for enhanced rigidity and precise rotational accuracy.
- HC: Signifies the use of Hybrid Ceramic components, specifically ceramic balls with steel rings.
- P4: Denotes the tolerance class, equivalent to ABEC-7, ensuring extremely tight dimensional and running accuracy.
71824 CD/HCP4 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Speed & Low Friction: The combination of ceramic balls and a lightweight phenolic cage minimizes centrifugal forces and friction, enabling a high limiting speed of 14,000 rpm.
- High Rigidity & Precision: The 15° contact angle and factory-set preload provide exceptional system stiffness and minimize axial and radial runout, which is critical for precision machining.
- Superior Load Capacity: The optimized internal geometry allows for a high dynamic and static load rating, reliably supporting combined radial and axial loads.
- Thermal Stability: The phenolic cage and ceramic balls offer superior dimensional stability across the operating temperature range of -30°C to 110°C.
