Cam Followers

Cam Followers are bearings with a stud incorporating needle rollers in a thick walled outer ring.

These bearings are designed for outer ring rotation, and have superior rotational performance with a small coefficient of friction. Also, they are designed to have minimal radial internal clearance to increase the loading zone, and thus reduce the effect of shock loads and ensure stable long life.

As studs already have threads or steps, they are easy to mount.

Cam Followers are follower bearings for cam mechanisms and linear motions and have high rigidity and high accuracy. They are, therefore, used widely for machine tools, industrial robots, electronic devices, and OA equipment.

Stainless steel made Cam Followers are superior in corrosion resistance and suitable for applications in environments where oil cannot be used or water splashed, and in clean rooms.
