The McGill PCYR series is a cam follower built as a roller bearing that tracks a cam profile or a linear guide. Its solid stud and cylindrical rollers let it carry heavy radial loads while transmitting motion accurately. Typical uses include actuating mechanisms, conveyors and cam systems where dependable rolling contact matters. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line for industrial applications across the United States and Latin America.

In the PCYR code, the letters name the cam follower series and the number that follows gives the roller size. Sample part numbers include PCYR 3, PCYR 3 1/2, PCYR 4, PCYR 4 1/2, PCYR 5 and PCYR 6, which show a progression of nominal diameters in inches. No extra suffixes appear in these examples, so the size number completes the identification. Confirm the exact dimensions of a specific variant by checking the full part number.

These cam followers suit actuating cams, machine tool guides, chain conveyors and positioning systems. They appear in packaging lines, material handling equipment and automation mechanisms. Because they handle radial loads and moments, they work well where the roller must stay in constant contact with a cam track, including moderate speeds and reversing rotation.

When selecting a cam follower, review the outside diameter, roller width and stud type. The PCYR series mounts on a solid stud fixed to the support; check alignment with the cam track to prevent side loads. Proper lubrication and sealing against contaminants are important. In dirty or damp environments, evaluate sealed variants. Internal clearance and preload affect how precisely the motion is transmitted.

McGill cam followers can be interchanged with other brands that use the same dimensional nomenclature. For a quote, compare outside diameter, width and stud diameter, along with roller type. If you need an equivalent, send the original part number and the main measurements.
