A cam follower from the MCGILL MCFE SBX line is a roller bearing whose outer surface is crowned, so it runs directly against cams, raceways and linear guides. It sits on a shaft or stud and takes radial loads together with shock. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to plants that need a sturdy roller, simple to install and able to carry load in a tight envelope.
Reading the code tells you what you are ordering. MCFE marks a McGill metric cam follower. The figure that follows, whether 22, 26, 40, 47, 52, 62 or 72, sets the roller size, the letter A notes a construction variant in the line, and SBX points to an execution with special sealing and particular mounting features. The safest way to order is to copy the full reference from the drawing or from the machine itself, for instance MCFE 22A SBX, MCFE 40A SBX or MCFE 72A SBX.
Typical duty covers cam tracks on machine tools, slide guides, conveyors, packaging machinery and reciprocating systems. The sealed build suits areas where dust, chips or moderate humidity are present, provided the mounting and the lubrication called for by the manufacturer are followed.
When you select a size, work from the outside diameter, the width and the stud type. Units in this series generally carry seals that hold lubricant in and keep contaminants out, so confirm that internal clearance and preload match the job. The stud has to be fastened firmly and the roller aligned with the cam track. Keep to the specified lubricant and inspect for wear at regular intervals.
McGill cam followers can be swapped with rollers from other makers that use the same metric standard and size designation. On a replacement, line up the key dimensions, meaning outside diameter, width, stud diameter and stud length, plus the sealing arrangement.
If you already know the reference you run, such as MCFE 26A SBX or MCFE 52A SBX, send it over WhatsApp, adding a photo or sketch when you can. Our team checks it and returns the quote promptly, and can point you to another sealing type or another size in the same series.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I read the MCFE SBX code?
- MCFE stands for a McGill metric cam follower. The number gives the roller size, A is a construction variant, and SBX indicates special sealing. Quote the complete reference so the exact model is confirmed.
- What data do I need to pick a cam follower?
- Outside diameter, roller width, stud diameter and stud length, and the sealing type. Send those figures or the original part number and we will help. Without them, a photo or sketch on WhatsApp is enough for us to identify it.
- Can MCGILL cam followers replace other brands?
- They can when the metric standard and the critical dimensions are the same. Check outside diameter, width, stud and sealing. No universal interchange table exists, so each case should be verified against the actual dimensions or the original part number.
