KD080XP0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The KD080XP0 is a high-performance Four Point Contact Ball Bearing from the Reali-Slim Open Bearings series, designed for applications demanding extreme space savings and high load capacity. This inch-series bearing features a single row design with a remarkably thin cross-section, enabling compact and lightweight machinery designs. Its four point contact geometry allows it to simultaneously support significant combined radial and axial loads from any direction, making it an ideal solution for high-rigidity and precision applications.

KD080XP0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The four point contact raceway design is the core of this bearing's performance. It provides high rigidity against moment loads (rated at 10 ft-lbf) and can handle substantial combined loads, with a dynamic load moment rating of 10,643 lbf. This design efficiently manages radial, axial, and moment loads in a single, compact unit.
Thin-Section Design: With an 8" bore and a width of only 0.5", this bearing offers an exceptional cross-sectional profile. This minimizes the required envelope in machinery, contributing to overall system weight reduction and space optimization.
Precision & Quality Construction: Manufactured to ABEC-1 precision tolerances with components made from Chrome Steel (rings and balls) and a Brass cage for reliable performance and stability. The tight internal radial clearance (0.0000" – 0.0005") ensures precise rotational accuracy.
Versatile Operation: The open, lubricated design allows for a wide operating temperature range of -30°C to 110°C, accommodating various industrial environments.
KD080XP0 Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Robotics: Rotary joints and actuators where compact size and high moment load capacity are critical.
- Aerospace & Defense: Radar platforms, gimbal systems, and flight control mechanisms.
- Machine Tool: Rotary tables, indexing heads, and other precision positioning equipment.
- Medical Equipment: CT scanners and MRI systems requiring smooth, precise rotation.
- Semiconductor Manufacturing: Wafer handling robots and precision stages.
