KG180AR0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The KG180AR0 is a high-performance thin-section angular contact ball bearing engineered for applications demanding exceptional precision and rigidity within a compact envelope. Manufactured to inch dimensions, this single-row bearing is specifically designed to handle significant combined loads, efficiently supporting both radial and axial forces. Its optimized 30° contact angle provides superior axial load capacity and high rigidity, making it an ideal solution for high-reliability, precision rotary systems where space and weight are critical constraints.
KG180AR0 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| KG | Indicates the Reali-Slim series of thin-section bearings. |
| 180 | Specifies the bore diameter in inches (18.0"). |
| A | Denotes the 30° contact angle, optimized for high axial load capacity. |
| R0 | Specifies the standard radial internal clearance (0.0000 – 0.0005"). |
KG180AR0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The single-row angular contact design with a 30° contact angle provides exceptional resistance to combined loads. It offers a high radial dynamic load rating of 12,898 lbf and a substantial axial static load rating of 33,200 lbf, ensuring stable performance under demanding conditions.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to ABEC-1 tolerance class, this bearing guarantees consistent running accuracy and smooth operation, which is critical for precision applications.
- Premium Material Construction: Components are crafted from Chrome Steel for rings and balls, and a Brass cage, ensuring high durability, wear resistance, and reliable performance across the specified temperature range of -30°C to 110°C.
- Optimized for Thin-Section Applications: With a cross-section of only 1" and a large 18" bore, this bearing maximizes space utilization and minimizes weight (13.8 lbs) without compromising on strength or performance.
