The MCGILL BCCFE SB cam follower is a roller bearing built for motion transfer in cam drives and linear guide systems. Its CAMROL bushing design handles radial loads and tilting moments, keeping operation steady in tough running conditions. You will find it in industrial machinery, automation equipment and transport systems where accurate, repeatable movement matters.
Reading the code helps you order the right part. The BCCFE portion describes the cam follower with CAMROL bushing; the SB suffix marks the sealed execution. In codes such as BCCFE 1 1/2 SB or BCCFE 1 1/4 SB, the figure between the letters and the suffix gives the outside diameter in inches, expressed as a fraction. Match that number, plus the roller width and sealing type, to the drawing or the marking on the part you are replacing.
Typical mounting points include drive cams, roller guides and indexing mechanisms. Packaging and filling lines, material handling systems, machine tools, mining equipment, conveyors and transfer devices in automotive or food plants all rely on cam followers of this type. Because they take combined loads, they suit positions where the motion has to repeat precisely over long runs.
The SB variant carries seals that hold lubricant in and keep dust, moisture and other contaminants out, which helps in dirty or humid areas. Correct alignment between the cam follower and its rolling track prevents eccentric loading. Periodic greasing with a suitable high-quality grease is part of normal upkeep, particularly at high speed or elevated temperature. Follow the manufacturer's guidance on axial and radial play when you set up the assembly.
Cam followers from MCGILL can be matched to other brands that use the same dimensional nomenclature, including KR and NUKR series. Tolerances and sealing arrangements differ between makers, so confirm those details before substituting a critical component. Our team can review your application and suggest an equivalent that fits.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the SB suffix indicate on MCGILL cam followers?
- SB identifies the sealed version. Labyrinth seals or retainers keep contaminants out and lubricant in, which is useful in dusty, dirty or humid locations.
- How do I determine the right BCCFE cam follower size?
- The outside diameter in inches appears in the code after BCCFE, for example BCCFE 1 1/2 SB means 1 1/2 inches. Check the roller width and the load capacity your application needs as well.
- Can a cam follower from another brand be replaced with a MCGILL one?
- Yes, when the main dimensions and the sealing type line up. MCGILL cam followers interchange with other brands using similar dimensional standards. Send us the original code and we will confirm the equivalence.
