71956 CD/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 71956 CD/P4A is a high-precision angular contact ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional rotational accuracy and rigidity. Engineered to a P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, it delivers superior running precision. Its key advantage lies in its ability to accommodate combined loads, efficiently handling both radial and substantial axial loads in one direction. The preload availability ensures minimal axial and radial play, resulting in high system stiffness, precise shaft positioning, and reduced vibration and noise levels, making it ideal for high-performance machinery.

| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| 71956 | Basic bearing series number, defining the fundamental dimensions: 280mm bore, 380mm outside diameter, 46mm width. |
| CD | Indicates a specific contact angle of 15° and optimized internal design for high axial load capacity and rigidity. |
| P4A | Denotes the tolerance class P4 (ABEC-7), signifying very high dimensional and running accuracy. The 'A' suffix may indicate specific accuracy or feature variations within the P4 class. |
71956 CD/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Precision: Manufactured to P4 precision class with a 15° contact angle, this bearing provides exceptional rotational accuracy and system stiffness, crucial for applications like machine tool spindles.
- Superior Load Capacity: The optimized internal geometry, including a ball diameter of 30.162 mm and 31 balls, enables high dynamic and static load ratings (65475 lbf / 102375 lbf), reliably supporting significant combined loads.
- High-Speed Capability: The lightweight and robust phenolic resin cage ensures stable operation and guides the balls effectively, contributing to the high limiting speed of 4,500 rpm.
- Durable Construction: Components made from chrome steel offer high hardness, wear resistance, and a long service life under demanding operating conditions.
- Preload & Temperature Range: The availability of preload enhances system rigidity. The bearing operates effectively within a temperature range of -30°C to 110°C.
