SKF R series cam followers are bearings built for rolling contact along a flat track. A crowned outer raceway and rubber seals are part of the design, which helps keep contamination out of the rolling elements. They show up in cam systems, linear guides and lifting mechanisms, and MR Industrial Accessories supplies them as part of its SKF bearing range.
The part number starts with a base number that defines size and design, followed by the R suffix. That suffix tells you the outer raceway is crowned, so the roller can run on a flat surface. Examples in the series include 361200 R, 361201 R and 361202 R, each with its own diameter and width. Consecutive numbers do not always mean the next size up, so check the dimensions tied to each individual part number before ordering.
You will find these rollers in metallurgy, food processing and automotive plants, as well as in cam applications, machine tool guides, conveyors and lifting systems. Production lines and linear motion equipment rely on them where rolling needs to stay precise despite dust or moderate humidity. The sealed construction is what makes them a fit for those conditions.
Selection comes down to the outer diameter and width your application calls for, plus the load and operating speed. The crowned raceway tolerates some misalignment, but starting with correct alignment helps avoid premature wear. Because the rubber seals depend on proper lubrication, confirm the recommended grease type and relubrication interval for your working conditions.
Cam followers from other brands may carry similar designations, yet dimensions and capacities can differ. Compare the critical dimensions and service conditions before interchanging anything. The SKF R series is a solid reference point, but each application deserves its own review. If anything is unclear, send the exact part number and we will help you sort it out.

- It means the roller has a crowned outer raceway for contact on a flat surface, which allows some tolerance to misalignment and improves load distribution in linear rolling applications.
- How do I pick the correct cam follower for my machine?
- Look at the outer diameter, width, load and operating speed, and also assess the environment to choose the right sealing. With those details, we can guide you to the correct part number in the series.
- Can SKF R series cam followers be swapped with other brands?
- Equivalents may exist, but dimensions and capacities can vary. Always compare critical dimensions and service conditions before replacing. Send us the original part number and we will help you find the best option.
