71901 CD/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71901 CD/P4A is a single-row angular contact ball bearing designed for applications requiring high precision and superior rotational accuracy. Engineered to P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, this bearing excels at handling combined loads (radial and axial) simultaneously, with a 15° contact angle optimized for high axial load capacity. Its compact design (12mm bore, 24mm OD, 6mm width) and phenolic cage contribute to exceptional high-speed performance, achieving limiting speeds up to 110,000 rpm. Preloaded and factory-lubricated, it ensures high rigidity and reliable operation in demanding precision machinery.
