The MCGILL MCYRD series cam follower is a roller bearing with an integrated stud, designed to run directly on cams, linear guides or raceways. It is mounted on machines where the load is radial and the speed is moderate, and it is used as a support or thrust roller in reciprocating motion mechanisms. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more than 80 years of experience in bearings and power transmission.

The MCYRD designation is read as the prefix of the McGill cam follower series. The numbers that follow —15, 17, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45— identify the roller size within the family. In the examples MCYRD 15 and MCYRD 20, the number corresponds to the roller outside diameter in millimeters, although for each size it is advisable to confirm the data sheet. The series carries no additional suffixes in the listed part numbers, so the order is completed with the full part number and the quantity.

These cam followers are used on machine tool cams, transfer systems, presses, packaging equipment and production lines. In Argentina they appear in the automotive, metalworking, food and plastics industries, where they perform rolling functions on curved surfaces or guiding functions on carriages and slides. They are also found in lifting equipment and in cam drive mechanisms that require a robust component with simple maintenance.

To select the correct cam follower, take into account the outside diameter, the roller width, the stud diameter and the type of sealing. The MCYRD series is mounted with the stud fixed to the structure and the roller rotating on the raceway; it is important to verify alignment between the stud and the cam to avoid side loads. Lubrication must be suitable for the working temperature and speed, and the sealing protects against dust and chips. During mounting, tighten the stud with the recommended interference and make sure the roller turns freely.

McGill cam followers are interchangeable with those of other brands that follow the same dimensional nomenclature, but do not rely on the part number alone: compare outside diameter, width, stud diameter and length, and type of sealing. If another brand's part number does not match, it is advisable to consult the manufacturer or a technical distributor. MR Accesorios Industriales can help with the equivalence based on the actual dimensions of the part.

If you need an MCGILL MCYRD series cam follower, send the complete part number —for example MCYRD 25 or MCYRD 40— on WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. We reply promptly with the quote and available alternatives. You can also ask about other sizes in the same series or about roller bearings for similar applications.
