71956 ACD/P4ADGA Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71956 ACD/P4ADGA is a precision angular contact ball bearing designed for applications requiring exceptional rotational accuracy and high rigidity. Manufactured to P4A tolerance class, this bearing features a 25° contact angle and an extra light preload (Class A), making it ideal for high-speed spindles and other precision machinery. Its universal matchable (SU) design allows for flexible mounting arrangements in pairs to support combined loads, including significant axial loads in both directions. The open design, combined with a phenolic cage, facilitates optimal lubrication for sustained high-speed operation.
71956 ACD/P4ADGA Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- 71956: Basic model number denoting a metric series, double-row angular contact ball bearing with a 280 mm bore.
- ACD: Signifies a 25° contact angle and a specific internal design optimized for high-speed performance.
- P4A: Indicates a very high precision tolerance class, exceeding ABEC 7 standards, for applications requiring minimal runout and vibration.
- DGA: Denotes a specific internal clearance and preload group (Extra light / Class A), ensuring optimal performance under high-speed, low-heat generation conditions.
71956 ACD/P4ADGA Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The double-row design with a 25° contact angle provides high radial and axial rigidity, capable of handling combined loads efficiently. With a dynamic load rating of 99,450 lbf and a static load rating of 194,625 lbf, it offers robust performance in demanding applications.
- High-Speed Performance: The phenolic cage reduces centrifugal forces and friction, contributing to a high limiting speed of 7,500 rpm. The open structure allows for efficient lubrication management, critical for heat dissipation at high rotational speeds.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to P4A tolerance class with tight dimensional tolerances on the bore, outside diameter, and width, ensuring precise shaft positioning and smooth operation.
- Universal Matching: Designed as a Universal Matchable (SU) bearing, two bearings can be paired in a back-to-back (DB), face-to-face (DF), or tandem (DT) arrangement without selective matching, simplifying installation and maintenance.
