The MCGILL MCFR cam follower is a roller bearing whose outer surface is cylindrical, so it runs directly against cams, raceways and linear guides. It handles high radial loads and works in oscillating or continuous rotation. You will find it in automation, conveying and production machinery where accuracy and long service matter. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers throughout the United States and in several Latin American countries.

In the MCFR code, the letters identify MCGILL metric cam followers with a cylindrical outer roller. The figure that follows tells you the roller outside diameter in millimeters, which is why the range runs from MCFR 13 up to MCFR 32 and takes in MCFR 16, MCFR 19, MCFR 22, MCFR 26, MCFR 30 and MCFR 35. A larger number means a larger diameter and, in general, more load capacity. Suffixes placed after the number point to sealing, cage or finish variants, so check the full part number before requesting a quote.

Typical jobs include actuating cams, machine tool guides, conveying systems, packaging equipment and automated production lines. In food, automotive, metallurgical and plastics plants, these followers roll on cam surfaces or support the load on rails. Because the outer profile is cylindrical, they suit linear travel and transmit motion with little friction at the critical points of the machine.

When you choose a follower, look at the outside diameter your mechanism requires, the load type (mainly radial), the rotation speed and the working environment. Sealing keeps out dust and moisture; if the equipment uses centralized lubrication or an oil bath, say so. Mounting calls for careful shaft alignment and a cam or raceway in good condition, since misalignment creates unexpected axial loads and early wear.

MCGILL MCFR cam followers can replace other brands that offer equivalent metric sizes when outside diameter, stud diameter, width and sealing type all match. A similar number is not enough: compare the complete designation and the tolerances. If you have the original part number from another brand, our team can help you find the corresponding MCGILL reference.
