The MCGILL MCFR X series cam follower is a roller bearing with a cylindrical outer profile, designed to withstand high radial loads in cam mechanisms and linear guidance systems. It is mounted on a shaft or stud and its outer race rotates in direct contact with the cam or guide. It is a robust solution for motion transmission in industrial machines, where high load capacity and wear resistance are required.
The MCFR X series designation is read in steps: MCFR identifies the McGill CAMROL metric cam follower family; the number that follows —as in MCFR 13 X, MCFR 16 X or MCFR 22 X— indicates the roller size, and the final letter X distinguishes the sealing or end configuration variant. The series examples range from MCFR 13 X to MCFR 35 X, with outer diameters and widths that scale according to the part number. To select the right one, the number must be cross-referenced with the cam and stud dimensions.
These followers are used in actuating cams, chain guides, conveyors, machine tools, presses and automation equipment. In Argentina, they are common in the automotive, metalworking, food and packaging industries, where production lines require components that withstand repetitive cycles and environments with dust or chips. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies the McGill line to meet those applications with the backing of a recognized brand.
To choose well, take into account the type of sealing: the X variant usually incorporates seals that retain lubricant and block contaminants, ideal for dirty environments. Also check the stud alignment and the permissible radial clearance, because a misaligned assembly accelerates race wear. Lubrication must be suitable for the load and rotation speed; in critical applications, it is advisable to check the internal clearance and the stud tightening torque.
As for equivalences, metric cam followers from different brands can be interchanged if the main dimensions, roller type and sealing configuration match. It is not enough for the part number to be similar: you must compare outer diameter, width, stud diameter and length, and load capacity. McGill is a reference in the field, and at MR we advise you to find the alternative that best suits your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the X mean in the MCFR X designation?
- The final letter X indicates a variant within the MCFR series, generally associated with the type of sealing or end configuration. To know exactly what it represents in your part number, send us the complete number and we will advise you.
- How do I choose the right cam follower for my machine?
- You need to know the radial load, the rotation speed, the cam diameter and the stud dimensions. With that data, we select the MCFR model that meets the requirements. If you do not have them, send us a photo or the part number of the original.
- Are McGill followers interchangeable with other brands?
- They can be if the main dimensions, roller type and sealing match. Do not rely on the part number alone: compare outer diameter, width, stud and load capacity. At MR we help you verify the equivalence.
