7212 CDGB/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The 7212 CDGB/P4A is a precision angular contact ball bearing designed for applications demanding exceptional rotational accuracy and rigidity. As a single bearing with Universal Matchable (SU) designation, it can be precisely paired with identical bearings to form optimized matched arrangements. Its P4A tolerance class ensures superior dimensional and running accuracy, making it ideal for high-speed spindles and other high-precision machinery. The bearing is pre-lubricated and features a light preload (Class B), providing immediate operational readiness and stable performance under combined radial and axial loads.

7212 CDGB/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Optimized Internal Geometry: The 15° contact angle provides an excellent balance between radial load capacity and axial load capacity, making it suitable for combined loading conditions.
High-Speed Capability: The phenolic cage offers superior strength-to-weight ratio and operates effectively at the limiting speed of 32,500 rpm, reducing centrifugal forces and maintaining stability.
Precision Performance: Manufactured to P4A tolerance standards, this bearing ensures minimal runout and vibration, critical for high-precision applications.
Superior Load Ratings: With a dynamic load rating of 12,870 lbf and static load rating of 10,462 lbf, it delivers reliable performance under demanding operating conditions.
Material Excellence: Constructed from chrome steel for both rings and balls, providing high hardness, wear resistance, and dimensional stability across the operating temperature range of -30°C to 110°C.
