The MCGILL MCFRE SBX series cam follower is a roller bearing with a threaded stud, designed to follow the profile of a cam or a linear guide. It mounts directly onto the structure via its stud and withstands radial loads with the precision required for motion transmission. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this MCGILL brand line, with more than 80 years of experience in the Argentine industrial market.
The MCFRE designation identifies the series of metric cam followers from MCGILL. The letters indicate the configuration: MCF corresponds to the cam roller family, the R indicates the roller type and the E distinguishes the execution. The number that follows —22A, 26A, 40A, 47A, 52A, 62A, 72A or 80A— refers to the roller size and stud diameter. The SBX suffix defines the sealing and constructional features of the item. To choose the correct part number, take into account the roller outer diameter and the stud thread.
These cam followers are used in actuating cams, machine tool guides, conveyors, presses and automation equipment. In Argentine industry they appear in packaging lines, textile machines, material handling equipment and cutting systems. Their function is to transform the rotation of a cam into controlled motion or to guide the movement of a carriage with minimal friction. The MCFRE SBX series covers applications requiring a robust, sealed roller for environments with dust or chips.
To select the cam follower, verify the permissible radial load, the rotational speed and the environmental conditions. The SBX sealing protects against contaminants and retains lubricant, which extends service life in dirty environments. Mounting must ensure that the stud is perpendicular to the cam track and tightened to the correct torque. Periodic lubrication with high-quality grease is key to performance. If the application requires precise alignment, check the concentricity of the threaded hole.
MCGILL cam followers can be interchanged with those of other brands that follow the same metric standard, as long as the roller dimensions, thread diameter and pitch, and type of sealing match. It is not enough for the part number to be similar: load capacity and internal design must be compared. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you on the right equivalent based on the original part number and working conditions.
