Cam followers are specially designed needle bearings that are threaded for quick and easy attachment in cam and track roller applications.

Emerson Bearing offers two types of hex slot cam followers: the CR-B and CR-XB. Featuring anti-friction designs and organized in compact configurations, these cam followers provide excellent dynamic and static load carrying capabilities.

Cam followers are typically available in stud or yoke styles; stud styles have a pin for mounting while yoke styles feature a hole in the middle of the bearing. Our CR-B and CR-XB hex slot cam followers are constructed in stainless steel and designed in the stud style, ideal for moderate loads and shock levels.

CR-B cam followers are unsealed, with hex sizes ranging from 1/8” to ¾” and maximum static capacities running from 720 lbs. to 45,100 lbs. CR-XB products are sealed; they range from 1/8” to 1/8” in hex size and support 720 lbs. to 3100 lbs. in static capacity.

Cam follower bearings, which follow tracks or cams in linear motion systems, are essential for conveyors and other applications in packaging, automotive, food processing, metal processing, and many other industries.

For applications requiring higher levels of precision, Emerson Bearing offers CR-XBEC eccentric stud hex slot cam followers in multiple configurations. The eccentric stud design of these needle bearings allows for seamless mounting and alignment.

Constructed from stainless steel, the CR-XBEC line features a heavy outer ring designed to accommodate different needle rollers and a crowned style to reduce or eliminate pre-loading, clearance, and wear compensation problems.

CR-XBEC cam followers are sealed. Their dimensions range from 0.500” roller OD by 5/8” stud length to 2.750” by 2-1/4”. Available configurations also include crown radii from 7” to 30”, hex sizes from 1/8” to ½”, and basic dynamic ratings from 970 lbs. to 15,280 lbs. Emerson’s stud cam followers work best in settings with moderate loads and shocks.
