The MCGILL MCFRE SB series cam follower is a roller bearing designed to be mounted on a shaft and follow the profile of a cam or a rolling guide. Its robust construction and sealing make it suitable for oscillating movements and combined loads in industrial machinery. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and advises you on choosing the correct code for your application.

The MCFRE designation identifies MCGILL metric cam followers with a threaded stud and cylindrical outer roller. The number that follows —for example, in MCFRE 22A SB or MCFRE 40A SB— indicates the roller size within the series. The suffix A distinguishes an execution variant, and SB indicates a version with reinforced sealing. Thus, MCFRE 26A SB and MCFRE 52A SB share the same type of mounting and sealing, but differ in diameter and width. To interpret each code precisely, it is advisable to consult the manufacturer's dimension table or write to us with the complete code.

These cam followers are used in actuating cams, linear guides, conveyors, packaging machines, printing equipment and cam systems of machine tools. In Argentine industry they appear in automotive production lines, food plants and plastics factories, where a support roller that withstands radial loads and tilting moments is required. Their sealed design makes them suitable for environments with dust or chips, provided the lubrication and mounting indicated by the manufacturer are respected.

To select the correct cam follower, take into account the roller diameter and width, the stud type, the permissible radial load and the rotation speed. The SB sealing protects against contaminants and retains lubricant, so it is recommended in exposed applications. During mounting, verify shaft alignment and cam perpendicularity; poor alignment accelerates wear. Lubrication must be suitable for the working temperature, and internal clearance must allow thermal expansion without compromising precision.

MCGILL cam followers can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands, but interchangeability is not automatic: dimensions, load capacity, sealing type and stud thread must be compared. It is not enough for the code to be similar; a difference in cam radius or shaft tolerance can affect operation. If you need to replace an existing cam follower, send us the original code and the main dimensions so we can offer you the right alternative.

At MR Accesorios Industriales we sell the MCGILL line of cam followers and have the experience to help you choose the model that best suits your machine. If you already have the code —for example, MCFRE 47A SB or MCFRE 80A SB—, write to us via WhatsApp and we'll quote you promptly. If you don't have it at hand, send us a photo or the roller dimensions and we'll guide you to identify the correct reference.
