The MCGILL MCFE SX series cam follower is a roller bearing with an integrated stud, designed to run against cams, guides or raceways. It is used when the load is radial and the motion combines rotation with travel over a surface. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and helps you identify the correct part number for your application.
The MCFE SX series designation is read in blocks: MCFE identifies the metric cam follower from the CAMROL line, the number that follows indicates the outside diameter in millimeters and the A distinguishes the stud execution variant. Thus, MCFE 22A SX, MCFE 26A SX and MCFE 40A SX are increasing sizes of the same family. The SX suffix indicates the sealing and lubrication configuration of the series. To confirm the nomenclature of your part number, send us the complete model.
In Argentine industry they appear in control cams, chain conveyors, machine tool guides, packaging equipment, presses and sheet feeding systems. They are also used as support rollers on rails and slides where the raceway is not a fixed shaft but a flat or curved surface. Because the stud is built in, they simplify mounting compared with a conventional bearing with a separate shaft.
To select correctly, take into account the outside diameter your cam needs, the width of the raceway and the type of load: radial, with axial thrust or combined. Check the sealing because it defines protection against dust, chips and cutting fluids. During mounting, align the stud with the raceway, verify clearance and lubricate according to the operating conditions. An off-center cam or a worn raceway shortens the life of the follower.
Among brands, metric cam followers are interchanged by dimensions and load capacity, not by the commercial part number. The same size can vary in sealing, stud material or roller type, so it is advisable to compare the dimensional data sheet before replacing. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies MCGILL as an official brand and can advise you on the right equivalent for your equipment.
If you already have the follower part number, send it via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales along with a photo of the mounting or the outside diameter measurement. With that we identify the corresponding MCFE SX variant and send you the quote shortly.
