71915 CD/HCP4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71915 CD/HCP4A is a single-row angular contact ball bearing engineered for high-precision applications requiring exceptional rotational accuracy and speed capability. This metric bearing features a 15° contact angle and is supplied with a preload, delivering high rigidity and precise shaft positioning. Its open seal design, combined with ceramic balls and a phenolic cage, enables superior high-speed performance up to 22,000 rpm. Manufactured to a P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, it is ideal for machine tool spindles and other demanding equipment.
71915 CD/HCP4A Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- 71915: Denotes the bearing series and size. The '70' series indicates a high-precision angular contact design. '15' represents a 75mm bore diameter.
- CD: Signifies a 15° contact angle and a matched preload applied to the bearing.
- HCP4A: A composite suffix where:
- P4: Identifies the tolerance class P4 (ABEC-7), ensuring very high dimensional and running accuracy.
- A: Indicates a 25° contact angle (Note: This appears to conflict with the provided 15° specification. In practice, the 'CD' suffix typically defines the 15° angle and preload, and the 'A' in this context may refer to internal design optimizations. The primary performance is defined by the 'CD' suffix).
71915 CD/HCP4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Precision: The angular contact design and applied preload eliminate internal clearance, providing high system stiffness and accurate rotational guidance, which is critical for machining precision.
- Superior High-Speed Capability: The combination of ceramic balls (lower density, reduced centrifugal force) and a lightweight phenolic resin cage significantly lowers friction and inertia, enabling stable operation at the limiting speed of 22,000 rpm.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The 15° contact angle is optimized to handle combined radial and axial loads simultaneously, with a dynamic load rating of 8055 lbf and a static load rating of 8438 lbf.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to P4 tolerance with tight dimensional controls on the 75 mm bore and 105 mm outside diameter, ensuring consistent performance and ease of installation in high-accuracy assemblies.
