Introduction
NSK has developed new methods of manufacturing to produce several series of bearings that
meet the ever-increasing needs for higher speeds and greater precision in bearing applications. These
Super Precision Bearings include angular contact bearings, precision cylindrical roller bearings and ball
screw support bearings.
Super Precision Angular Contact bearings are specifically designed for rigid, high-speed, high-
precision machine tool spindles. Their state-of-the-art preload control assures consistent high
performance. Super Precision Angular contacts are also available with seals – contact NSK for
details.
High Speed Super Precision Angular Contact bearings are now available due to NSK’s new optimized
design, under the ROBUST name. Allowing increased speeds and improved performance, these series
are available in application specific designs for machining center applications (BNR), and high speed
grinding applications (BGR) – both allowing customers to push the limits of existing speeds.
Super Precision Angular Contact Thrust bearings are designed to work together with high speed
super precision cylindrical roller bearings where high speed, and high rigidity are required. Offered in
a 30º and 40º series, this offering allows flexibility for meeting the rigidity requirements seen in many
machine tool applications.
Super Precision Cylindrical roller bearings are designed to specifically handle large radial loads in
high speed applications. They are available in a variety of designs, including double row and single row
options, to suit various applications. In addition, a standard lube groove and hole feature is available
along with tapered and non-tapered bores. When combined with Super Precision Angular Contact Thrust
bearings, the Super Precision Cylindrical meets the high rigidity requirements of many machine tool
spindle applications.
Ball Screw Support bearings are designed specifically to provide maximum axial rigidity and improved
feeding accuracy for use with precision ball screws. They are high accuracy angular contact thrust
bearings, which are superior to combinations of standard angular contact bearings or arrangements of
radial and thrust bearings for ball screw applications. Both Metric and Inch series are available.
Ball Screw Support Units are also available from NSK. Please reference, Linear Section, p. 270, for
more details.

Limiting Speeds
The limiting speeds listed in the Bearing Dimensional Tables are guideline values. They are based on a single bearing that is lightly preloaded by means of a spring and subjected to a relatively
light load with good heat dissipation.
The limiting speeds with grease lubrication are determined using high quality grease in appropriate amounts. Those listed for oil lubrication are based on the use of oil-air (or oil mist)
lubrication. In situations where the lubricating oil is used as a means to remove heat, higher speed can be achieved, however a large amount of oil must be pressure fed through the bearing, so
there is a significant loss of spindle power.
When single bearings are used in two, three or four row combinations, or the preload is increased to improve spindle rigidity, limiting speeds will be lower than those listed by the factors in the
table below.

Limiting Speeds
The limiting speeds listed in the Bearing Dimensional Tables are guideline values. They are based on a single bearing that is lightly preloaded by means of a spring and subjected to a relatively
light load with good heat dissipation.
The limiting speeds with grease lubrication are determined using high quality grease in appropriate amounts. Those listed for oil lubrication are based on the use of oil-air (or oil mist)
lubrication. In situations where the lubricating oil is used as a means to remove heat, higher speed can be achieved, however a large amount of oil must be pressure fed through the bearing, so
there is a significant loss of spindle power.
When single bearings are used in two, three or four row combinations, or the preload is increased to improve spindle rigidity, limiting speeds will be lower than those listed by the factors in the
table below.

The variation in dynamic and static radial load ratings among different series of angular contact bearings is primarily influenced by the bearing dimensions, material properties, and design specifications such as ball contact angles and arrangement types. For example, the 7000 A5 series has varying load ratings like 1160 lbs for 7000 A5 and 7500 lbs for 7012 A5, with higher dimensional values in higher-numbered bearings indicating their greater load-carrying capacity. The material (steel or ceramic), contact angle (typically 15° or 25°), and design configuration (single row, duplex) also contribute to these differences by affecting stiffness, contact area, and the ability to handle dynamic forces .
The geometry of bearing dimensions, including inner diameter (d), outer diameter (D), and width (B), directly affects their mechanical properties such as load capacity, speed ratings, and overall performance in specific applications. Larger bearings typically have higher load capacities due to increased surface area contact, and as these dimensions increase, they can accommodate larger loads but may necessitate adjustments in speed limits due to greater friction and heat generation. Smaller dimensions generally facilitate better speed performance, beneficial for applications requiring rapid rotation. These geometries, therefore, dictate the balance between load-handling capabilities and operational speeds depending on the mechanical demands of the application .
The contact angle in angular contact bearings significantly impacts their axial load capacity and rigidity, making it a critical parameter for precision applications. Bearings with a greater contact angle, such as 25°, can support higher axial loads and provide better rigidity, which is vital for applications requiring high precision and stability. Conversely, a smaller contact angle, like 15°, tends to reduce the axial load capacity but allows for higher radial speeds, which suits applications where speed is prioritized over load handling. The choice of contact angle thus determines the balance between speed and load capacity, affecting the performance and suitability for specific precision engineering tasks .
Different preload types, such as light (L), medium (M), or heavy (H), are employed in angular contact bearings to enhance performance in specific scenarios by ensuring operational stability and minimizing vibration. Light preload minimizes friction, aiding smoother and faster speeds, suitable for high-speed applications with lower shock loads. Medium preload balances between speed and stability, offering improved contact mechanics without significant speed loss, ideal for intermediate load applications. Heavy preload increases rigidity and load capacity, imperative for operations requiring high precision and minimal deflection, albeit at reduced speed limits due to increased contact pressure and frictional heat .
Limiting speeds for bearings are significantly affected by preload settings and lubrication types. Bearings that are lightly preloaded and use grease lubrication can achieve the listed limiting speeds if good heat dissipation is maintained. When oil lubrication is applied, higher speeds are achievable, provided that enough oil is fed into the bearing to assist heat removal. However, the spindle power is reduced in such cases. Moreover, when single bearings are aligned in combinations like tandem (two, three, or four-row alignments) or have increased preload to enhance spindle rigidity, the actual limiting speeds will be lower than the standard speeds listed, due to increased friction and heat generation in the system. The arrangement and preload decrease the effective speed limits by the given factors for different bearing configurations, such as DB, DBB, or DBD .
Series designation numbers in angular contact bearings provide insight into their dimensional and operational attributes such as load capacity, contact angle, and speed suitability. For example, higher series numbers, like the 7200 A5 versus 7900 A5, generally indicate increased size or enhanced capabilities in terms of load handling and rigidity, affecting their application contexts and performance expectations. Operating characteristics such as contact angle influence how they manage axial and radial loads, and the series number also suggests compatibility with other bearing components and assemblies, impacting their suitability for diverse engineering applications .
Limiting speeds differ significantly between grease lubrication and oil lubrication methods used in bearings. Grease-lubricated bearings achieve speeds safely with less frequent maintenance due to the containment of lubricant, which is suitable for applications with moderate speed requirements. In contrast, oil-lubricated bearings, particularly those using oil-air or oil mist systems, can reach higher speeds as the oil aids in both lubrication and heat dissipation but require continuous maintenance to ensure the adequate flow of oil and heat removal, increasing overall maintenance demands. These lubrication specifics highlight the trade-off between maintenance frequency and operational speed capabilities .
Material choices such as steel versus ceramic balls in super-precision bearings impact their operational characteristics by influencing load ratings, speed capabilities, and thermal tolerance. Ceramic balls, being lighter and harder than steel, reduce rotational mass and can operate at higher speeds with less thermal expansion, making them suitable for high-speed applications. However, steel balls typically offer better resilience to shock loads and are more cost-effective for applications where extreme speeds are less critical. The choice of material thus determines the bearings’ ability to handle stresses and environmental demands efficiently .
Bearing basic load ratings correlate with their application by dictating the maximum operational limits regarding forces or pressures that bearings can withstand without compromising performance or longevity. In high-speed industrial settings, bearings with high dynamic and static load ratings are preferable as they offer increased resilience against wear from mechanical stresses and high rotational speeds. These ratings assure reliability and help avert premature failure under the demanding conditions of industrial operation. Bearings such as the BNC and BNR series, with their high load ratings, are thus optimized for these high-performance contexts .
Shoulder dimensions, including the minimum and maximum shoulder heights and fillet radii, are vital in determining the mechanical stability and axial restraint of precision angular contact bearings. Proper shoulder dimensions ensure that the bearings maintain alignment and effectively transmit loads without excessive play or misalignment. They support the raceways and guide the rolling elements, thereby upholding the precision and performance criteria, particularly under fluctuating loads and high-speed conditions. Misaligned or inadequately dimensioned shoulders could lead to uneven wear and instability, reducing the bearings' life and performance .
