The McGill MCFE SX series cam follower is a roller bearing with a threaded stud, designed to transmit motion in cams, guides and lifting systems. Its robust construction withstands radial loads and allows smooth operation in demanding applications.

If you need to replace a component or develop a new application, send us the part number on WhatsApp and we'll quote you shortly.
The MCFE SX series designation is read as follows: MCFE identifies McGill's family of metric CAMROL cam followers, with threaded stud and support roller. The number that follows indicates the roller size within the series. The SX suffix indicates a specific construction variant, generally linked to the sealing type and the stud configuration. To identify the exact replacement, it is important to verify the full part number stamped on the component.
These cam followers are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina. They are common in machine tools, packaging equipment, conveying systems, presses, punching machines and cam mechanisms in general. They also appear in the food, automotive and metalworking industries, where precise, repetitive motion is required. Their design allows them to be mounted directly on shafts or plates, withstanding radial loads and tilting moments. In guiding applications, they are used as support rollers for rails and profiles, ensuring smooth, long-lasting travel.
To correctly select an MCFE SX cam follower, take into account the radial load it will withstand, the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: the SX variant usually includes seals that retain lubricant and block contaminants, ideal for dusty or humid environments. Check the alignment of the stud with respect to the raceway; excessive misalignment accelerates wear. Lubrication must be suitable for the working temperature, and it is advisable to check internal clearance according to the application. Correctly fitted mounting extends the component's service life.
As for equivalents and interchangeability, metric cam followers from different brands may differ in stud dimensions, outer diameter, width and sealing type. Even if two part numbers look similar, it is essential to compare technical specifications before replacing. McGill is a reference in this type of bearing, and MR Accesorios Industriales sells its line for the local market. If you need to replace a cam follower from another brand, send us the measurements or the original part number and we'll help you find the right alternative within the MCFE SX series.
