71917 ACD/P4ATBTA Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71917 ACD/P4ATBTA is a super-precision angular contact ball bearing designed for the most demanding applications. As part of a triplex back-to-back (TBT) matched set, it delivers exceptional system rigidity and rotational accuracy. Its key advantages include the ability to handle combined radial and axial loads simultaneously, superior high-speed performance enabled by its phenolic cage, and outstanding operational reliability due to its P4A tolerance class and extra light preload. This configuration is engineered for machine tool spindles and other high-precision machinery where maximum stiffness and precision are non-negotiable.

71917 ACD/P4ATBTA Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Extreme Rigidity: The triplex back-to-back (TBT) arrangement creates an exceptionally rigid bearing system, capable of resisting complex moment loads and maintaining precise shaft positioning under heavy cutting forces.
- Superior High-Speed Capability: The lightweight phenolic resin cage ensures excellent dimensional stability and low centrifugal forces at high rotational speeds, contributing to a limiting speed of 28,000 rpm.
- Precision & Accuracy: Manufactured to P4A tolerance class, this bearing guarantees minimal runout and vibration, which is critical for achieving superior surface finishes and machining accuracy.
- Optimized Load Capacity: With a 25° contact angle and robust chrome steel construction, the bearing is engineered to support significant combined radial and axial loads (Dynamic: 21,060 lbf, Static: 30,825 lbf).
- Pre-lubricated for Immediate Operation: The bearing comes lubricated from the factory, ensuring immediate startup and protection during the initial run-in period.
