The SKF cam follower and support roller of the STO TN series is a component designed to support radial loads in applications where a compact, easy-to-mount bearing is required. It is used in cams, linear guides and transmission systems, offering reliable performance under demanding operating conditions. Its design allows effective lubrication and a long service life.

The designation STO … TN is interpreted as follows: STO indicates that it is a cam follower and support roller of the STO series, the symbol # represents the size or outside diameter in millimeters, and TN indicates that the roller incorporates a polyamide cage. For example, STO 6 TN and STO 8 TN correspond to rollers with outside diameters of 6 and 8 mm respectively, both with a polyamide cage. This nomenclature allows the main features of the product to be identified quickly.

These rollers are used in a wide variety of industrial applications in Argentina, such as machine tools, packaging equipment, conveyor systems, industrial printers and cam mechanisms. They are common in the automotive, metalworking and food industries, where precise, wear-resistant movement is required. Their compact design makes them ideal for tight spaces and for supporting radial loads in both directions.

To select the right roller, take into account the outside diameter, the width and the required load capacity. Mounting must be carried out on a shaft with a suitable fit, ensuring correct alignment to avoid undue axial loads. Lubrication is essential: verify the compatibility of the lubricant with the polyamide cage and the temperature conditions. Suitable sealing extends service life in contaminated environments.

As for equivalences, rollers of the SKF STO TN series can be interchanged with products from other manufacturers that follow the same international designation, such as INA or NTN, as long as the dimensions and capacities match. It is important to verify the tolerances and the cage type, since they may vary between brands.
