71918 ACD/P4AQBCB Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71918 ACD/P4AQBCB is a precision quadruplex angular contact ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional rigidity and load capacity. This matched set of four bearings is arranged in a back-to-back (QBC) configuration, enabling it to withstand complex combined loads—significant radial forces and thrust loads in both directions. Manufactured to P4A tolerance class, it guarantees superior running accuracy and rotational precision. With a light preload (Class B) and factory lubrication, it is ready for immediate installation, offering high reliability and performance in high-speed and high-stiffness environments.

|---|---|
| 71918 | Basic bearing series and size designation (90mm bore, 125mm OD). |
| ACD | Angular Contact design with a 25° contact angle. |
| P4A | Indicates a high-precision tolerance class (superior to ABEC 7). |
| QBC | Signifies a Quadruplex (set of 4) Back-to-Back matched arrangement. |
71918 ACD/P4AQBCB Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Exceptional Rigidity and Load Capacity: The quadruplex back-to-back arrangement creates an extremely rigid bearing system, capable of handling high radial dynamic load ratings of 26,325 lbf and radial static load ratings of 43,425 lbf. This configuration is ideal for applications with significant moment loads.
- Optimized for High-Speed Operation: The phenolic cage offers low weight and excellent performance at high rotational speeds, contributing to a limiting speed of 15,000 rpm.
- Precision Engineering: The P4A tolerance class ensures minimal runout and vibration, which is critical for the accuracy of machine tools and other precision equipment. The specified bearing dimensions (90mm bore, 125mm OD, 72mm width) are held to tight tolerances for consistent performance.
- Robust Material Construction: Made from chrome steel for both rings and balls, this bearing provides high durability and fatigue resistance. The open seal type allows for optimal lubrication flow in controlled environments.
