The MCGILL MCYR series is a line of metric cam followers built to run against cam profiles and rolling guides. These bearings handle radial and axial loads, making them suitable for reciprocating motion and continuous contact tasks in industrial machinery, automation equipment and conveying systems.
The part number tells you the outer diameter in millimeters. In MCYR 5 X, the outer diameter is 5 mm; in MCYR 10 X, it is 10 mm. The letters MCYR mark the family, and the X suffix denotes a design detail of the series, such as the sealing type or profile shape. Use the outer diameter and your operating conditions as the starting point for selection.
Typical uses include actuation cams, linear guides, roller conveyors and positioning systems. You will find them in machine tools, packaging equipment, industrial printers and automation devices. Their design maintains smooth, precise contact with the track, which helps reduce wear and preserve motion accuracy.
When selecting, consider the load type (radial, axial or combined), rotation speed and environmental conditions. The integrated sealing keeps contaminants out and lubricant in, so assess exposure to dust or moisture. During mounting, align the bearing precisely with the rolling track and check internal clearance per the manufacturer's manual. Proper lubrication with high-quality grease supports bearing life and reduces maintenance.
MCYR cam followers can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands when critical dimensions match: outer diameter, width, bore diameter and sealing type. Verify load capacity and tolerances for proper performance. For a quote, send the full part number (for example, MCYR 8 X) and your application details so we can suggest the most suitable alternative.
