The SKF KRVE PP series cam follower is a stud-type roller bearing built for high radial loads and cam-driven motion in industrial equipment. A threaded stud lets you mount it directly to the machine structure, and the PP designation means polyamide contact seals on both sides. It is commonly found in cam systems, linear guides and lifting mechanisms where precise, dependable operation matters.
The code breaks down simply. KRVE indicates a cam follower with a threaded stud and cylindrical rollers. PP tells you that both sides carry polyamide contact seals. The number that follows, as in KRVE 40 PP, is the roller outer diameter in millimeters. Reading the designation this way makes it easy to confirm size and sealing when you specify a new component or look for a replacement.
These cam followers suit drive cams, slide guides, chain conveyors and positioning systems. They show up in machine tools, packaging lines, automotive assembly operations and food processing plants. Because they handle combined loads and resist contamination, they fit demanding environments where lubrication and sealing have a direct effect on bearing service life.
Selection comes down to radial and axial load, rotation speed and the surrounding conditions. PP sealing works well where dust or moisture is moderate. If liquids are present, consider other sealing options. During mounting, check that the stud is aligned and apply the recommended tightening torque so the stud is not deformed. These cam followers come with initial lubrication, though severe applications may call for periodic relubrication.
SKF cam followers can be interchanged with other brands that use the same dimensional designation, including INA, NTN and NSK, provided the outer diameter, stud diameter and thread match. When comparing equivalents, check tolerances and seal type, since these can differ between manufacturers. MR supplies SKF as a brand and can help you identify the right replacement for your equipment.

- PP indicates polyamide contact seals on both sides. These seals keep out dust and moisture, which helps extend bearing service life in contaminated environments.
- How do I select the correct cam follower for my machine?
- Review the radial and axial load, the rotation speed and the operating conditions. Confirm the outer diameter and stud type. If you are unsure, send the equipment part number and the team will advise you.
- Can SKF KRVE PP cam followers replace other brands?
- They can be interchanged with cam followers from other brands that share the same dimensions and thread, such as INA or NTN. Always verify tolerances and sealing, as these may vary between manufacturers.
