Basic rating life of the 7015 CD
Basic rating life is L10 = (C / P)p million revolutions, where P is the equivalent dynamic load and p = 3 (ball bearing). For a 7015 CD with C = 52.7 kN, the table shows what that gives at different load levels. It is the ISO 281 basic life only: it does not include lubrication, contamination, misalignment or reliability modifiers.
| C / P | P as share of C | L10 (million rev) | L10 at 1,500 rpm | L10 at 3,000 rpm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 33.3% | 27 | 300 | 150 |
| 5 | 20.0% | 125 | 1,400 | 690 |
| 8 | 12.5% | 512 | 5,700 | 2,800 |
| 12 | 8.3% | 1,728 | 19,200 | 9,600 |
For example, a C / P of 5 means the equivalent load is 10.54 kN on this bearing. Use the Load Calculator to work out P for your actual radial and axial loads.
Equivalents of the 7015 CD
Brand-by-brand equivalents for this exact designation are not shown here. The Cross-Reference tool accepts SKF, FAG, NSK, NTN, Timken, Koyo and NRB designations, and shows what is catalogued.
Where the 7015 CD is used
Super-precision angular contact bearings are used where rotational accuracy, stiffness and high speed matter, typically in machine-tool spindles. In this catalogue the CD — high capacity variant is listed with both grease and oil-air speed guides.
Other sizes in the same series
The 7015 CD belongs to the “CD — high capacity (medium)” series. The next size down, the 7014 CD, has a bore of 70 mm and a dynamic rating of 52 kN. The next size up, the 7017 CD, has a bore of 80 mm and a rating of 67.6 kN (+28%).
Common problems on bearings like the 7015 CD
Most field failures trace back to lubrication, contamination, fits and alignment rather than the bearing itself. These guides explain how to recognise and prevent them:
