Stud Needle Roller Bearing Series M5X0.8 Cam Follower KR13 CF 5

Needle roller bearing series stud type M5X0.8 cam follower KR13 CF 5

Cam Follower Needle Roller Bearings are also referred to as track follower. They are designed to follow a sliding or rotating piece (cam) and they use rollers or needles as the rolling elements. Cam Follower Bearings are therefore able to replicate a specific motion because they are highly versatile. They have thick-walled outer rings that run on a track. They are used to minimize distortion and bending stress while facilitating high load carrying capacity.Generally speaking, cam follower bearings are designed in different configurations and special structures can be designed according to the task requirements. 

Stud style cam follower Needle bearing has one end plate integrated into the inner race (stud) and the other pressed onto the stud unto a shoulder on the inner race. Both ends of the stud have holes for lubrication and the inner race is induction hardened to maintain some degree of softness in case some modification is required.

Materials of cam follower bearings

Needle roller: Gcr15, quench-hardening HRC60-65

Rings:Gcr15

Cage:Low-carbon steel or reinforced nylon

Both the stud and yoke cam followers have an outer diameter that may either be cylindrical or crowned. The crowned. The crowned ones are often used in turntable type applications because they help reduce skidding.

Cam Follower Bearings are suitable for applications that involve high radial loads and certain shock loads. They are widely used in machine tools, metallurgy, textile and printing machinery, pressing lines, indexing equipment, ram support rollers, material handing, motor vehicles, pumping devices, etc.
