The MCGILL MCF B series cam follower is a roller bearing with a threaded stud, designed to withstand radial loads and transmit motion in cam mechanisms. It mounts directly onto the structure via its threaded stud and a nut, and its cylindrical outer race rolls on the cam or guide surface. It is a compact and robust solution for applications requiring high load capacity and rigidity in a small space.

The MCF B series designation is read as MCF (metric cam follower), followed by a number indicating the outer diameter in millimeters and the letter B identifying the version with threaded stud and support roller. For example, MCF 16 B, MCF 19 B, MCF 22 B, MCF 26 B, MCF 30 B, MCF 32 B, MCF 35 B and MCF 40 B cover an outer diameter range from 16 to 40 mm. The number is not an internal series code, but the nominal measurement of the roller outer diameter.

These cam followers are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina, such as metalworking, food, cement and mining. They are common in cam systems, conveyors, machine tools, packaging equipment and automated production lines. Their design allows them to withstand high radial loads and tilting moments, making them ideal for applications with reciprocating motion or rolling on cam tracks.

To select the right cam follower, take into account the required outer diameter, the stud thread type and the sealing. The MCF B series usually incorporates lip seals to retain lubricant and exclude contaminants. Mounting must ensure correct alignment with the cam track and adequate lubrication, either with grease or oil, depending on the application. The lock nut must be tightened to the recommended torque to prevent loosening due to vibration.

Regarding equivalences and interchangeability, metric cam followers from different brands may differ in stud dimensions, load capacity and sealing type. Therefore, when replacing a component, it is essential to verify the complete part number and critical dimensions. The MCGILL MCF B series is a well-established reference in the market, and at MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you on compatibility with other brands.
