Cam followers

Cam followers are needle or roller bearings with a heavy outer ring that rolls directly on a cam or track. Stud types bolt in place; yoke types mount on a shaft or pin. We supply them in inch and metric sizes, with crowned or cylindrical outer rings, hex-socket studs and eccentric versions for setting clearance.
