71940 CD/P4ATBTA Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71940 CD/P4ATBTA is a metric precision angular contact ball bearing supplied as a triplex matched set in a back-to-back (TBT) arrangement. Engineered for applications demanding extremely high rigidity and superior running accuracy, this bearing configuration is designed to handle combined loads (radial and axial) simultaneously. The P4A tolerance class and extra light preload (Class A) ensure exceptional performance in high-speed, high-precision environments such as machine tool spindles.

71940 CD/P4ATBTA Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- Unmatched Rigidity & Stability: The triplex back-to-back (TBT) arrangement creates a highly rigid bearing system that effectively resists moment loads and shaft deflection, which is critical for maintaining precision under heavy combined loads.
- High-Speed Capability: The phenolic resin cage offers low weight and excellent performance at high rotational speeds, contributing to a limiting speed of 6,300 rpm. The optimized internal geometry and 15° contact angle further enhance high-speed operation.
- Precision & Accuracy: Manufactured to a P4A tolerance class with extremely tight dimensional tolerances on the bore, outside diameter, and width, this bearing guarantees smooth, quiet, and vibration-free running essential for ultra-precise applications.
- Optimized Load Capacity: With a high dynamic load rating of 101,025 lbf and static load rating of 180,000 lbf, the set is built for demanding operational conditions and long service life.
