Description

NTN KRT85 is a cam follower reference, within Bearings. Request a quote for KRT85 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The NTN KRT series cam follower is a cylindrical roller bearing with a crowned outer profile, designed to withstand high radial loads and allow the movement of cams, guides and cam-follower systems. It mounts directly onto a shaft through its inner bore, and its outer ring rotates in contact with the cam track. It is a robust solution for mechanisms requiring high load capacity and rigidity, with the reliability of NTN, a brand MR Accesorios Industriales sells in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The KRT series designation reads as a code combining letters and numbers: KRT identifies the cam follower family, and the number that follows indicates the outside diameter in millimeters. For example, KRT16 has a 16 mm outside diameter, KRT22 has 22 mm, and so on up to KRT40. This nomenclature allows you to quickly select the right size according to the available space and the load to be supported. Additional suffixes, if present, indicate sealing, cage or special tolerance variants; ask us about the full part number for advice.

These cam followers are used in a wide variety of industrial applications in Argentina: machine tools, packaging equipment, conveying systems, presses, drive cams, linear guides and lifting mechanisms. Industries such as food, automotive, metalworking and plastics use them for their ability to withstand combined loads and resist demanding working conditions. Their compact design and high rigidity make them ideal for tight spaces where precision and durability are required.

To select the right cam follower, take into account the radial and axial load it must withstand, the rotation speed, the type of lubrication and the environmental conditions. Mounting must be done on a shaft with a suitable fit, checking alignment to avoid eccentric loads. Lubrication can be permanent (with seals) or require periodic relubrication depending on the application. If the cam follower runs in contact with a cam, it is essential that the cam surface be ground and have adequate hardness to maximize the service life of the assembly.

As for equivalents and interchangeability, NTN KRT series cam followers can replace similar products from other brands, but the critical dimensions must always be verified: outside diameter, bore diameter, overall width and seal type. Not all manufacturers use the same nomenclature, so we recommend requesting a quote with the exact part number or the measured dimensions. MR Accesorios Industriales can tell you the compatible alternative if you bring us the original part or the technical data.
