**NTN Angular Contact Ball Bearings: Precision Performance for Demanding Applications**
NTN’s Single Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings are engineered to deliver exceptional precision, durability, and load-bearing performance in high-speed and high-precision applications. Designed to accommodate combined radial and axial loads, these bearings are ideal for industrial machinery, automotive systems, and precision equipment where reliability and efficiency are critical.
### **Technical Features & Design Advantages**
NTN’s Single Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings feature a robust design with a contact angle (typically 15°, 25°, 30°, or 40°) that optimizes load distribution between axial and radial forces. The bearings are available in open, shielded, or sealed configurations, with options for high-grade steel, ceramic hybrid materials, or special heat treatments to enhance performance in extreme conditions.
Key design elements include:
– **Precision-Ground Raceways** – Minimize friction and ensure smooth operation at high speeds.
– **Optimized Cage Designs** – Available in pressed steel, machined brass, or polymer cages to reduce weight, prevent slippage, and improve lubrication retention.
– **High-Grade Materials** – NTN uses premium bearing steel (SUJ2 equivalent) or hybrid ceramic balls for applications requiring corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, or ultra-high-speed capability.
– **Preloaded Matched Sets** – For applications requiring rigid axial positioning, NTN offers precision-matched bearing sets (DB, DF, DT, or tandem arrangements) to minimize deflection and improve system stiffness.
### **Performance Benefits**
– **High-Speed Capability** – Low friction and optimized internal geometry allow for superior rotational performance in spindle motors, turbochargers, and machine tool applications.
– **Enhanced Load Capacity** – The angular contact design efficiently handles combined loads, making these bearings ideal for gearboxes, pumps, and electric vehicle drivetrains.
– **Long Service Life** – Advanced lubrication technologies and surface treatments reduce wear, extending bearing life even in contaminated or high-temperature environments.
### **Typical Applications**
NTN’s Single Row Angular Contact Ball Bearings are widely used in:
– **Industrial Machinery** – CNC spindles, robotics, and high-speed machining centers where precision and rigidity are crucial.
– **Automotive Systems** – Wheel hubs, transmissions, and electric motor bearings in hybrid/electric vehicles (EVs).
– **Aerospace & Precision Equipment** – Aviation actuators, medical devices, and optical instruments requiring ultra-low vibration and noise.
With decades of expertise in bearing technology, NTN ensures that its angular contact ball bearings meet the highest industry standards, including ISO, ABEC, and DIN specifications.
