Cam follower (stud-type track roller) are designed to run on and to be used in cam drives, bed ways, conveyor systems, linear guidance systems, etc. They are based on a needle roller bearing with a threaded solid stud instead of an inner ring. They have a thick-walled outer ring with a crowned running surface and are supplied ready-to-mount. A narrow gap between the outer ring and the adjacent components forms a gap-type seal. The bearings can be relubricated via the stud.
They are available in several designs and variants:
KR | V | E | 19 | PP | SK | X | SS | RR |
