SB180AR0 Bearing Product Overview & Core Advantages
The SB180AR0 is a high-precision thin section angular contact ball bearing designed for applications demanding exceptional rigidity and precise motion control. Manufactured from stainless steel with a 30° contact angle, this single-row bearing is engineered to support combined loads, handling significant radial and axial forces simultaneously. Its Reali-Slim cross-section provides a compact, lightweight solution without sacrificing performance, making it ideal for space-constrained, high-reliability applications. The bearing comes pre-lubricated and is rated for a wide operating temperature range.
SB180AR0 Bearing Model Code Explained, Specifications & Naming Convention
- SB: Indicates a Stainless Steel thin section bearing.
- 180: Specifies the bore diameter in inches (18.0").
- A: Denotes the Angular Contact design.
- R0: Specifies the Radial Internal Clearance group (0.0000 – 0.0005").
SB180AR0 Bearing Structural Features & Performance Benefits
- High Rigidity & Load Capacity: The angular contact design with a 30° contact angle and stainless steel construction provides high rigidity, enabling the bearing to handle substantial combined radial and axial loads (Radial Static: 8660 lbf, Axial Static: 5510 lbf).
- Precision Performance: Built to ABEC-1 tolerance standards, it ensures smooth, precise operation with minimal runout, which is critical for accurate positioning systems.
- Durability & Corrosion Resistance: The use of stainless steel for rings and balls, combined with a brass cage, offers excellent corrosion resistance and longevity, even in challenging environments.
- Optimized for Compact Designs: The Reali-Slim profile (Width: 0.3125") allows for significant weight and space savings (Weight: 1.26 lbs) in advanced machinery.
SB180AR0 Bearing Typical Application Areas
- Robotics: Arm joints and precision actuators.
- Aerospace & Defense: Guidance systems, gimbals, and control surfaces.
- Medical Equipment: Surgical robots and MRI scanner components.
- Semiconductor Manufacturing: Wafer handling robots and precision stages.
- Optical Instrumentation: Rotary stages and mirror mounts.
