S71918 CD/P4A Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The S71918 CD/P4A is a high-precision angular contact ball bearing designed for demanding applications requiring exceptional accuracy and reliability. Engineered to the P4 (ABEC-7) tolerance class, this bearing excels at handling combined loads, supporting significant radial loads and thrust loads in one direction. Its compact design, featuring an 18 mm width, makes it ideal for space-constrained, high-speed spindles and precision machinery where high rigidity and rotational accuracy are paramount.
S71918 CD/P4A Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
| Suffix Code | Technical Meaning | Significance & Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| CD | Matched Bearing Set (Duplex) | Indicates the bearing is supplied as a pre-loaded duplex pair, optimized for maximum rigidity and precise axial positioning. |
| P4A | Tolerance Class (ABEC-7) | Denotes a super-precision grade with extremely tight dimensional and running accuracy tolerances for superior performance in high-speed applications. |
S71918 CD/P4A Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Preload: The duplex "CD" arrangement provides a consistent, factory-set preload, eliminating internal clearance and resulting in exceptional system stiffness, which is critical for minimizing deflection under load.
- Superior Load Capacity: With a 15° contact angle, the bearing is optimized to handle high combined radial and axial loads simultaneously. The dynamic load rating of 10,688 lbf ensures long service life under demanding conditions.
- High-Speed Performance: The lightweight and robust phenolic resin cage ensures stable operation and reduced centrifugal forces, contributing to the high limiting speed of 9,500 rpm.
- Sealed & Lubricated for Life: As a sealed unit, it is protected from contamination and comes pre-lubricated, offering a maintenance-free solution within its specified temperature range of -30° to 110 °C.
