TAC 03Preload M
Product and series description
NSK TAC40-3 is a TAC 03 special-bore high-load angular contact thrust ball bearing. Customers search this exact designation for dimensions, load ratings, replacement and supplier quotation intent.
Special bore series - larger envelope with reduced bore for axial capacity upgrade
Application role
Ball screw support bearings at the fixed or floating end of a precision screw drive carry axial loads, define system stiffness and accommodate thermal elongation. This designation must be evaluated with screw diameter, speed, nut preload and lubrication at both screw ends.

Ordering and identification
NSK ordering codes combine bore, TAC series, seal, arrangement, preload and accuracy suffixes. Example: 30 TAC 62 C DDG SU H PN7C. Do not assume a complete ordering designation from the base model code alone.
Send existing part marking, required seal type, arrangement (fixed/floating), preload class and accuracy requirement for engineering identification.
Selection and quotation guidance
For quotation, provide NSK designation, screw diameter, lead, speed, axial load, duty cycle, arrangement and environment. Golden Bearing Company supports engineering-led identification and quotation without publishing price, stock or availability claims on this page.
Evidence and commercial boundary
Engineering values on this page are taken from the NSK Super Precision Bearings Catalogue for NSK TAC40-3.
Reference to NSK TAC40-3 does not imply Golden Bearing Company distributes, stocks, authorises or represents NSK unless separately confirmed. No price, stock, availability or lead-time claims are made.
Product questions
NSK TAC40-3 is a TAC 03 ball screw support bearing used in special-bore high-load angular contact thrust ball bearing. Exact suffix configurations such as seal, arrangement and accuracy class must be confirmed against NSK manufacturer ordering data.
Catalogue extract dimensions: bore 40 mm, OD 110 mm, width 27 mm. See the specification table on this page for the full parameter list.
55° contact angle per NSK Super Precision Bearings Catalogue for this series.
Catalogue grease lubrication limiting speed: 3700 min-1. Oil-air limits require manufacturer verification where not tabulated in the extract.
Catalogue duplex DB/DF preload: 3900 N with axial rigidity 970 N/um and starting torque 0.5 Nm. These are arrangement ratings for duplex DB/DF mounting, not properties of a single unmounted bearing.
Base family designation: TAC40-3. Complete ordering codes add seal, arrangement, preload and accuracy suffixes (for example SU H PN7C on TAC C sizes). Send existing marking or application duty for identification support.
NSK application contexts include CNC machine tool feed drives, precision positioning axes, and heavy-load servo drives depending on series (TAC C rigidity vs TAC 03 load vs BSBD cartridge mounting).
