McGill BCF SB cam followers are stud-type roller bearings built for support on cams, guides, and rolling tracks. They handle radial loads under reciprocating or continuous motion and are used in drive mechanisms, conveyors, and equipment where the roller contacts a surface. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies them from Miami for customers across the United States, Canada, Mexico, and South America.
The code structure is simple: BCF identifies the CAMROL stud-type follower, the number gives the outside diameter in inches as a fraction, and SB indicates the sealed version. For example, BCF 1 SB, BCF 1 1/8 SB, BCF 1 1/4 SB, and BCF 1 1/2 SB all share the same type but differ in size. When requesting a quote, send the full designation.
These followers are common in drive cams, linear guides, conveyor rails, packaging machines, material handling equipment, and gate mechanisms. As wear parts, they are replaced periodically. Matching the original designation avoids altering the mechanism's geometry.
Selection starts with outside diameter, stud diameter, and sealing. The SB suffix means sealed, which suits dusty or wet environments. Proper mounting requires aligning the roller with the track and checking axial play. Poor alignment accelerates wear on the bushing and track.
Cross-brand replacements are possible if dimensions and sealing match. Compare outside diameter, width, stud diameter, and seal type. If you only have the old part, measure it or send the code to MR by WhatsApp for help identifying the correct option.
To get a quote, send the complete code—for example, BCF 1 1/2 SB—or the roller measurements. Our team will verify the variant and respond promptly. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies McGill cam followers along with bearings and power transmission components.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the SB suffix mean in BCF cam followers?
- SB indicates the sealed variant within the BCF series. It provides protection against dust, chips, and moisture. Keeping the same suffix when replacing ensures the original working conditions are maintained.
- How do I request a quote for a McGill cam follower?
- Send the full code by WhatsApp, such as BCF 1 1/4 SB, or provide the roller measurements: outside diameter, width, and stud diameter. We will identify the variant and quote promptly.
- Can I replace a cam follower from another brand with a McGill one?
- Yes, if the mounting dimensions and sealing type match. Equivalence is confirmed by comparing outside diameter, width, stud diameter, and sealing, not by the commercial code. Send the measurements by WhatsApp and we will help verify.
