Description

SKF PWKRE 40.2RS is a cam follower and support roller reference, within Bearings. Request a quote for PWKRE 40.2RS via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The SKF cam follower and support roller of the PWKRE series is a cylindrical roller bearing with an integrated stud, designed to withstand high radial loads and oscillating or rotating movements. It is used in cams, linear guides, conveyors and lifting mechanisms. Its robust construction and integrated sealing make it suitable for environments with dust, humidity or permanent lubrication. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line as an official brand for industrial applications that demand reliability and long service life.

The designation PWKRE identifies an SKF cam follower and support roller with a threaded stud and sealing. The number that follows, as in PWKRE 40.2RS or PWKRE 62.2RS, indicates the outer diameter of the roller in millimeters. The suffix .2RS indicates double contact sealing, which retains lubricant and blocks contaminants. This series is characterized by its high radial load capacity and its ability to withstand moderate axial loads. Suffixes may vary depending on the type of sealing or the stud design, so it is advisable to verify the complete code at the time of inquiry.

These rollers are used in machine tool cams, conveyor belt guiding systems, packaging equipment, robotics and lifting mechanisms. In Argentine industry they appear in automotive production lines, food plants, cement plants and paper mills, where working conditions include dust, vibration and variable loads. Their design with an integrated stud simplifies assembly and allows replacing ball bearings in applications that require greater load capacity and rigidity.

To correctly select a PWKRE roller, take into account the outer diameter, total width, stud diameter and mounting thread. The .2RS sealing is suitable for contaminated environments, but if there are high speeds or extreme temperatures, evaluate other sealing options. During assembly, ensure precise alignment between the stud and the raceway; excessive misalignment shortens service life. Lubrication must be appropriate for the load and speed, and it is advisable to check the internal clearance before start-up.

SKF cam followers and support rollers can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands, but interchangeability is not automatic: dimensions, load capacity, type of sealing and thread must be compared. The SKF PWKRE series usually has equivalents in other companies' catalogs, but codes and tolerances may differ. Therefore, always verify the technical specifications before replacing one roller with another. MR Accesorios Industriales can advise you on the best alternative for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the .2RS suffix mean on a PWKRE roller?
The .2RS suffix indicates that the roller has double contact sealing, one on each side. This prevents lubricant loss and the entry of dust or humidity, extending service life in contaminated environments. It is important to verify that the sealing is compatible with the working speed and temperature.
How do I choose the right PWKRE roller for my application?
Take into account the outer diameter, width, stud diameter and mounting thread. Also consider radial and axial load, rotation speed and environmental conditions. If you are not sure, consult us with your equipment data and we will advise you.
Can SKF PWKRE rollers be replaced by those of other brands?
Yes, equivalents exist in other brands, but interchangeability is not direct. Dimensions, load capacity, type of sealing and thread must be compared. Do not rely only on the code; verify the technical specifications. We can help you find the correct alternative.
