The McGill MCFE series cam follower is a roller bearing with a cylindrical outer profile, designed to transmit motion in cam mechanisms and linear guidance. Its robust construction withstands radial loads and allows direct mounting on shafts or studs. It is used in equipment where the roller must follow a track or cam precisely, such as presses, conveyors and machine tools. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this McGill line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with technical advice to choose the right variant.
The MCFE designation identifies McGill metric cam followers. The letters MCFE correspond to the series with threaded stud and cylindrical roller. The number that follows —for example, in MCFE 22A SB or MCFE 40A SB— indicates the roller size within the series. The suffix A distinguishes a construction variant, and SB indicates the presence of sealing. Thus, MCFE 52A SB and MCFE 72A SB are rollers of larger diameter than MCFE 26A SB, all with the same mounting configuration.
These cam followers are used in applications where a cam or a guide must drive a mechanism repetitively. In Argentine industry they appear in packaging lines, food processing machines, presses, material handling equipment and transfer systems. They are also found in the automotive sector and in agricultural machinery manufacturing, where wear resistance and the ability to withstand combined loads are decisive for process continuity.
To select the correct cam follower, take into account the roller outer diameter, the stud type and the sealing. The SB variant incorporates seals that retain lubricant and block the entry of contaminants, which extends service life in dusty or humid environments. Mounting requires careful alignment with the cam track and proper tightening of the stud; correct lubrication and appropriate internal clearance complete the installation. If the equipment operates with impact loads, it is advisable to verify the load capacity of the chosen roller.
McGill cam followers can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands that follow the same metric nomenclature. The key is to compare the roller dimensions, the stud type and the sealing, not just the part number. There are alternatives on the market with similar designations, but tolerances and materials may vary. Therefore, when replacing a roller, it is advisable to validate interchangeability against the actual dimensions of the housing and the track. MR Accesorios Industriales can guide you in that comparison.
If you need a McGill cam follower for your equipment, send the complete part number —for example, MCFE 47A SB— via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. With that information, the technical team identifies the variant and provides you with a quote shortly. You can also ask about other sizes in the MCFE series or about alternatives for specific applications.

- How do I choose the correct cam follower size?
- You have to consider the roller outer diameter, the stud diameter and type, and the load it will withstand. The space available for mounting also matters. If you send us your equipment dimensions, we will help you find the MCFE part number that best fits.
- Are McGill MCFE cam followers interchangeable with other brands?
- They can be interchangeable with rollers from other brands that share the same metric nomenclature and dimensions. However, it is advisable to verify tolerances, material and sealing type. For a safe replacement, compare the actual dimensions of the housing and the cam track.
