For machinery that relies on a rolling element to trace a cam profile or run along a guide track, the MCGILL CFH SB cam follower delivers reliable performance. This inch-series bearing mounts on a shaft and handles radial loads in both reciprocating and continuous motion. You will find it in cam drives, conveyors, machine tools and automated systems.

Decoding the part number helps you specify the right follower. CFH marks the inch cam follower family. The number that follows is the outside diameter in inches, written as a fraction — for instance, CFH 1 1/2 SB means a 1 1/2 inch OD. The SB suffix denotes a construction variant within the series, typically tied to the sealing method or stud design. Sizes range from CFH 1 SB through CFH 1 7/8 SB, covering a broad span of diameters.

Cam followers like these are common in textile machinery, packaging lines, roller conveyors and reciprocating equipment. They also appear in presses, bending machines and linear guidance systems that need a precision rolling wheel. Because they tolerate radial loads and some misalignment, they work well in fixed-shaft arrangements.

Selecting the correct follower starts with the outside diameter your mechanism requires. Then consider the load type — radial, axial or combined — and the operating environment. The SB sealing keeps contaminants out and lubricant in, which helps in dusty or humid conditions. Proper mounting means aligning the shaft correctly and ensuring adequate lubrication. In critical applications, verify internal clearance and mounting interference.

MCGILL cam followers can interchange with equivalent inch products from other manufacturers when key dimensions match: outside diameter, stud diameter, width and sealing type. Always supply the complete part number and, if available, the standard dimensions when requesting a quote so equivalence can be confirmed. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies the MCGILL brand as part of its bearing range for industry.
