71904 CE/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71904 CE/P4A is a single-row angular contact ball bearing engineered for applications demanding high precision and high-speed performance. As a P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class bearing, it is designed to handle significant combined loads (radial and axial) simultaneously, with a contact angle optimized for axial load capacity. Its compact design, featuring a 20 mm bore and 9 mm width, makes it ideal for space-constrained, high-reliability machinery requiring exceptional rotational accuracy and rigidity.
71904 CE/P4A Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix Code | Technical Meaning | Significance & Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| CE | Contact Angle (15°) and Internal Design | Specifies the optimized contact angle for efficient axial load carrying capacity. |
| P4A | Tolerance Class (P4 / ABEC-7) with Specific Accuracy Requirements | Denotes a high-precision bearing with extremely tight dimensional and running accuracy tolerances, ensuring smooth, low-vibration operation. |
71904 CE/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Precision: Manufactured to P4 tolerance class with a phenolic resin cage, this bearing provides superior dimensional stability and minimal runout, essential for applications requiring high positional accuracy.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The 15° contact angle is engineered to support substantial combined loads, making it capable of handling both radial forces and unidirectional axial thrust effectively.
- Superior High-Speed Performance: The lightweight phenolic cage reduces centrifugal forces, while the optimized internal geometry and pre-lubrication contribute to a high limiting speed of 88,000 rpm, making it an excellent high-speed bearing.
- Preload and Matched Arrangements: The bearing is supplied with a preload, which increases system stiffness, reduces noise and vibration, and enhances rotational accuracy. It is available as a single bearing for specific arrangements.
