S71904 CDTP/HCP4B Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The S71904 CDTP/HCP4B is a high-precision angular contact ball bearing engineered for demanding applications requiring exceptional accuracy and performance. This single-row bearing features a 15° contact angle and is supplied with a preload, delivering superior running accuracy and high rigidity. Its compact design, with a 20 mm bore and 9 mm width, makes it ideal for space-constrained, high-speed spindles. The combination of a ceramic ball material and P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class ensures low heat generation, minimal thermal expansion, and extended service life under high-speed operation.
S71904 CDTP/HCP4B Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| S | Denotes a bearing with a super-precision tolerance class. |
| 71904 | The basic bearing series designation, indicating a high-precision angular contact bearing with a 20mm bore, 37mm OD, and 9mm width. |
| C | Specifies a 15° contact angle, optimized for high-speed applications requiring high rigidity. |
| D | Indicates the bearing is supplied with a preload for enhanced stiffness and rotational accuracy. |
| TP | Signifies the cage material is phenolic resin, offering low weight and excellent performance at high speeds. |
| HC | Denotes the use of hybrid ceramic balls (silicon nitride), which reduce friction, heat, and wear. |
| P4 | The tolerance class is equivalent to ABEC-7, indicating extremely tight dimensional and running accuracy tolerances. |
| B | Indicates the bearing is pre-lubricated with a specific high-performance grease. |
S71904 CDTP/HCP4B Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Running Accuracy: The application of a preload eliminates internal clearance, resulting in significantly increased system stiffness and superior running accuracy, which is critical for machining precision.
- Superior High-Speed Performance: The hybrid ceramic balls are lighter and harder than steel, reducing centrifugal force and friction. Combined with the lightweight phenolic resin cage, this allows the bearing to achieve a high limiting speed of 53,000 rpm with minimal heat generation.
- Extended Service Life: Ceramic balls are electrically resistant and have a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than steel, leading to more stable preload conditions and reduced wear, especially in challenging thermal environments.
- Sealed and Lubricated for Life: As a sealed and pre-lubricated unit, the bearing is protected from contamination and is designed for maintenance-free operation throughout its service life within the specified temperature range.
