The NTN KRV series cam follower is a roller bearing with an integrated stud and cylindrical outer surface, designed to transmit motion directly on cams, raceways or linear guides. It is used in mechanisms where the load is radial and the rotation of the cam follower follows the movement of the part. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this series with technical assistance to choose the correct configuration according to the application.
The KRV series designation is made up of the number that indicates the cam follower outside diameter and a series of suffixes that define the sealing, stud type and surface treatment. For example, in KRV16FDOH/L588 and KRV19FDOH/L588, the letters FD indicate double sealing, OH indicates a stud with a hole and groove for lubrication, and the L588 suffix identifies a manufacturing variant. Knowing these letters avoids confusion when ordering the replacement.
These cam followers are used in machine tool cams, chain guides, transport systems, presses, packaging equipment and cam mechanisms in general. In Argentine industry they appear in automotive production lines, food plants, road machinery and textile equipment, where motion precision and wear resistance are critical. Their robust construction withstands high radial loads and demanding working conditions.
To select the correct cam follower, take into account the outside diameter your mechanism needs, the type of sealing (single or double) according to ambient contamination, and whether the stud should have a lubrication hole or not. Mounting requires a hardened and ground raceway, with precise alignment with respect to the cam. Proper lubrication and adjustment of internal clearance extend the service life of the bearing.
NTN KRV series cam followers can be interchanged with equivalent references from other brands that follow the same dimensional nomenclature. If you have the part number from another brand or an unidentified part, send us the data and we will indicate the compatible equivalent. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you so that the replacement is direct and safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the FD suffix mean in a KRV cam follower?
- The FD suffix indicates double sealing, that is, seals on both sides of the cam follower. This configuration protects against the entry of contaminants and lubricant loss, ideal for environments with dust or dirt. If your application is clean, single sealing may be enough.
- How do I choose between a cam follower with a solid stud and one with a lubrication hole?
- The stud with a hole and groove (OH) allows the bearing to be relubricated without dismounting it, which extends its service life in critical applications. If the cam follower works in a hard-to-reach mechanism, choose the version with a hole. For moderate loads and simple maintenance, the solid stud is sufficient.
- Can I replace a cam follower from another brand with an NTN KRV series one?
- Yes, as long as the main dimensions match: outside diameter, stud diameter and width. The NTN KRV series follows a standard dimensional nomenclature, which makes interchangeability easier. Send us the part number of the original part and we will confirm the equivalent.
