KB180CP0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
Thin Section Design: With a minimal cross-section of only 0.3125" width, this bearing enables compact machine designs while maintaining structural integrity. The optimized bearing dimensions (18" bore × 18.625" OD) provide maximum load capacity within minimal space constraints.
High Load Capacity: Featuring a radial dynamic load rating of 1936 lbf and radial static load rating of 7440 lbf, this bearing delivers exceptional performance for its compact size. The precision-ground Chrome Steel components ensure reliable operation under demanding conditions.
Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance standards with tight dimensional control (bore/OD tolerance: 0.0018"–0"), this bearing guarantees smooth operation and accurate positioning. The brass cage provides excellent guidance and stability for the precision balls.
Optimized Internal Clearance: With a controlled radial internal clearance of 0.0000 – 0.0005", the bearing achieves optimal performance balance between smooth operation and minimal play.
