Description
Product Overview
The XUAB angular contact ball bearing is engineered for demanding automotive air‑conditioning compressor applications. Featuring high‑speed capable angular contact balls, the bearing tolerates both radial and axial loads with exceptional stability. Its compact 40BD45 40x57x24 design measures just 1.97 x 1.97 x 1.97 inches, weighing 1.1 pounds, making it ideal for tight engine bays. Constructed from high‑grade steel races and precision‑ground balls, the bearing offers durability and consistent performance throughout its service life.
Usage
Designed for automotive AC compressors, this bearing excels in environments where high rotational speeds and heavy loads intersect. It is suitable for passenger cars, light trucks, and commercial vehicles that require reliable cooling performance. Installers benefit from its straightforward, tool‑free maintenance, while mechanics appreciate the bearing’s ability to self‑align with minor shaft deflection, reducing wear and extending service intervals.
