The MCGILL MCFR series cam follower is a roller bearing with a crowned outer profile, designed to transmit motion over cams, raceways and linear guides. It mounts on a shaft or stud and supports radial loads with slight misalignment. It is used in actuating mechanisms, conveyors, machine tools and automation equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line for plants in Buenos Aires and throughout the country.
The MCFR series designation combines letters and numbers: MCFR identifies the family of metric cam followers, and the number that follows —22, 26, 40, 47, 52, 62, 72 or 80— indicates the roller size. The suffix A distinguishes the construction variant within the series. Thus, an MCFR 40A and an MCFR 80A share the same configuration but differ in diameter and load capacity. To choose the correct part number, have the drawing or the sample of the roller you are replacing on hand.
In Argentine industry, MCGILL cam followers are used in cams of packaging machines, conveyor guides, cutting systems, presses and linear motion equipment. They also appear in the food, automotive and metalworking sectors, where a robust bearing is required to withstand radial loads and demanding working conditions. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies them for replacement and new projects in Buenos Aires and the rest of the country.
To select a cam follower, consider the outer diameter, the width and the stud type. Verify that the raceway is aligned and free of excessive wear. Mounting must be done with the fit recommended by the manufacturer, avoiding impacts that damage the rollers. Proper lubrication —grease or oil depending on the environment— extends service life. If there is misalignment, check the mounting base before installing the bearing.
MCGILL cam followers can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands, provided the main dimensions match: outer diameter, width, stud diameter and length, and sealing type. A similar part number is not enough: the dimensional data sheet must be compared. If you do not have the original reference, send us the measurements and a photo of the roller at MR Accesorios Industriales and we will help you identify the compatible option.
