When a mechanism relies on rolling contact between a cam and its follower, the MCGILL CFE SB series cam follower is built for that job. It handles radial loads and tilting moments, keeping motion precise over time. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers across the United States and Latin America, and can help you match the right part number to your application.
Reading the code helps you order correctly. CFE marks the inch-series cam follower family, while SB signals a sealed construction. The figure that sits between those letters is the outside diameter in inches, so you will see designations such as CFE 1 SB, CFE 1 1/4 SB or CFE 1 1/2 SB. That diameter sets the roller size, and the full designation identifies the item. For a quote, send the complete part number from your drawing or sample.
These followers show up in machine tools, packaging lines, conveyors, automation cams, presses and linear guiding systems. Food and pharmaceutical operations also use them where a sealed bearing must cope with washdowns. Their role is to carry the cam or raceway movement, transfer the load and hold the mechanism's precision.
Selection comes down to three things: the outside diameter your cam or guide requires, the sealing needed for the environment (dust, moisture, washdowns), and how the follower mounts. CFE SB units mount through a threaded stud or a shaft, and alignment with the cam or guide must be checked. Lubrication and internal clearance also affect how long the follower lasts. If anything is unclear, share your mechanism data with us.
Inch-series cam followers from other brands may interchange when the main dimensions and sealing type line up, but load capacity and stud design still need verification. The MCGILL CFE SB series is a common reference point, and we can point you toward suitable options. We work from the exact designation shown in the catalogs.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the SB suffix mean in CFE cam followers?
- SB indicates a sealed construction variant. That configuration keeps contaminants out and helps retain lubricant, which matters in dusty or humid settings. Send us the full part number to confirm it fits your application.
- How do I choose the correct size of a CFE cam follower?
- The number in the designation, such as CFE 1 1/4 SB, is the outside diameter in inches. Pick the one that matches your cam or guide, then check mounting type and loads. If you are unsure, send us your equipment measurements.
- Are MCGILL CFE SB cam followers interchangeable with other brands?
- They may interchange when the main dimensions, sealing type and load capacity match. Matching outside diameter alone is not enough; the stud and internal design must also be checked. Contact us on WhatsApp and we will advise you.
