The MCGILL MCFE SBX cam follower is a stud-type roller bearing built for cam drives, raceways and linear guides. It handles radial and impact loads in reciprocating mechanisms and mounts directly to the equipment shaft, which keeps assembly and maintenance straightforward. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to industrial plants across the United States and Latin America.
Reading the part number helps you order correctly. MCFE is the CAMROL metric cam follower family; the figure that follows, as in MCFE 16 SBX or MCFE 40 SBX, sets the roller size within the series. The SBX suffix denotes a construction variant, normally tied to the seal type and stud configuration. Have the complete number ready when you contact us.
Typical applications include machine tool cams, transfer systems, chain guides, presses, packaging equipment and automation. Because these cam followers tolerate combined loads and slight misalignment, they suit assemblies with vibration and demanding duty cycles.
Selection comes down to radial load, rotation speed and lubrication method. The SBX seal keeps contaminants out and lubricant in, which supports service life in dirty environments. At mounting, check shaft alignment and perpendicularity to the raceway; poor adjustment speeds up wear. Regular greasing with a suitable lubricant keeps performance steady.
MCGILL cam followers can be interchanged with equivalents from other brands when dimensions, roller type and seal configuration match. Matching the outer diameter alone is not enough; compare width, stud diameter and load capacity as well. Send us the original part number and we will help you find an equivalent.
