|---|---|
| 71916 | Basic bearing series and size designation (80mm bore, 110mm OD, 16mm width). |
| ACE | Internal design code signifying a 25° contact angle and optimized internal geometry for high-speed operation. |
| P4A | Indicates the bearing is manufactured to P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class with specific dimensional and running accuracy requirements. |
71916 ACE/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High-Speed Capability: The phenolic resin cage and 25° contact angle are engineered for stable operation at high rotational speeds, with a limiting speed of 22,000 rpm. The open design facilitates efficient lubrication and heat dissipation.
- Precision & Rigidity: Built to P4 super-precision standards, this bearing ensures minimal runout and vibration, contributing to superior system rigidity and positioning accuracy in demanding applications.
- High Load Capacity: The optimized internal geometry, including a 9.525 mm ball diameter and 24 balls, provides excellent dynamic and static load ratings (4860 lbf / 3825 lbf) for its compact cross-section.
- Preload Availability: The bearing is supplied with a preload, which eliminates internal clearance and increases system stiffness, critical for high-precision machining and instrumentation.
71916 ACE/P4A Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Machine Tool Spindles: High-speed milling, grinding, and turning centers.
- Precision Instrumentation: Measuring devices, optical scanners, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM).
- High-Frequency Motors and Spindles: Applications requiring minimal vibration and high rotational accuracy.
