S71918 ACD/HCP4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The S71918 ACD/HCP4A is a high-precision angular contact ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional accuracy and performance. This sealed single bearing features a 25° contact angle and is supplied with a preload, delivering superior running accuracy and high rigidity. Its compact design, combined with a phenolic cage and ceramic balls, enables high-speed operation and reliable performance under combined radial and axial loads, making it ideal for high-reliability precision machinery.
S71918 ACD/HCP4A Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Code Segment | Technical Meaning |
|---|---|
| S71918 | Basic bearing designation, indicating a metric series angular contact ball bearing. |
| ACD | Signifies a 25° contact angle and that the bearing is supplied with a preload for high rigidity and precise operation. |
| HC | Indicates the use of a hybrid ceramic construction (Ceramic balls with steel rings). |
| P4 | Denotes a high-precision tolerance class (ABEC-7 / ISO P4), ensuring minimal runout and vibration. |
| Sealed / Lubricated | The bearing is sealed and comes pre-lubricated, offering protection from contaminants and extended service life. |
S71918 ACD/HCP4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity and Precision: The 25° contact angle and factory-set preload provide high system stiffness and excellent running accuracy, critical for applications with minimal deflection.
- Superior High-Speed Performance: The combination of a lightweight phenolic resin cage and low-density ceramic (hybrid) balls significantly reduces centrifugal forces, enabling a high limiting speed of 10,000 rpm.
- Extended Service Life and Reliability: Ceramic balls offer superior wear resistance, lower friction, and insensitivity to thermal expansion. The integral seals retain lubrication and exclude contaminants, ensuring long-term, maintenance-free operation.
- High Load Capacity: With a dynamic load rating of 9945 lbf and a static load rating of 10800 lbf, this bearing is engineered to handle significant combined loads (radial and axial) simultaneously.
