71940 CD/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71940 CD/P4A is a single-row angular contact ball bearing engineered for applications demanding high precision and superior running accuracy. Manufactured to P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, it is designed to accommodate high axial loads in one direction while simultaneously supporting radial loads. Its phenolic cage and optimized internal geometry contribute to excellent high-speed performance and operational stability, making it an ideal choice for high-performance spindles and precision machinery.
Model Code Breakdown
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 71940 | Basic bearing series and size designation. |
| C | Specifies a 15° contact angle, optimized for high axial load capacity. |
| D | Indicates that the bearing is supplied with a preload for enhanced rigidity and precise shaft positioning. |
| P4A | Denotes a P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, ensuring extremely tight dimensional and running accuracy for precision applications. |
71940 CD/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Precision: The combination of a 15° contact angle and factory-applied preload (D) provides high system rigidity, minimizes deflection under load, and ensures exceptional running accuracy, which is critical for machine tool spindles.
- Superior High-Speed Capability: The lightweight and robust phenolic resin cage offers excellent dimensional stability and low friction, enabling stable operation at the high limiting speed of 7,000 rpm.
- Optimized Load Capacity: The single-row design with a specific contact angle is engineered to handle significant axial loads in one direction combined with radial loads, as reflected in its high dynamic and static load ratings.
- Precision-Grade Components: Manufactured from high-grade chrome steel for rings and balls, and built to P4 tolerance, this bearing guarantees consistent performance and long service life in demanding conditions.
