SKF cam rollers

Nodes supplies SKF cam rollers. The product are listed in SKF support roller bearings.

SKF cam rollers (yoke-type track rollers based on ball bearings) are designed to run on all types of tracks and to be used in cam drives, conveyor systems, etc.

The outer ring running surface is crowned as standard Double row cam rollers are also available with a cylindrical (lat) outer ring running surface.

SKF also have cam rollers greased, sealed and ready-to-mount They are available in two main designs and also as variants of these:

SKF cam rollers

SKF single row cam rollers based on deep groove ball bearings in the 62 series.

SKF double row cam rollers based on double row angular contact ball bearings in the 32 dimension series.

SKF cam roller features

Accommodate high radial loads
The thick-walled outer ring enables high radial loads, while reducing distortion and bending stresses.

Accommodate tilting moments
Double row cam rollers accommodate higher tilting moments than single row cam rollers.

Long service life
The crowned outer ring running surface is beneicial for applications where outer ring tilting relative to the track may occur or where edge stresses need to be minimized.

Relatively high speed capability

SKF single row cam rollers

SKF single row cam rollers are based on deep groove ball bearings in the 62 series. these SKF bearings have a thick-walled outer ring with its running surface crowned. they are capped with a sheet steel reinforced NBR contact seal on both sides. SKF single row cam rollers are greased for the life of the bearing and cannot be relubricated.

When capped bearings must operate under certain conditions, such as very high speeds or high temperatures, some grease may leak. For bearing arrangements where this would be detrimental, appropriate actions should be taken.

SKF double row cam rollers

SKF double row cam rollers are based on double row angular contact ball bearings in the 32 dimension series. they have a thick-walled outer ring with its running surface available in two designs: 1, crowned as standard (series designation 3058‥ C). 2, cylindrical (lat) (series designation 3057‥ C).

SKF double row cam rollers have a 30° contact angle, enabling, together with the two ball sets, tilting moments to be accommodated.

These SKF bearings are supplied capped in two variants:

  • with a sheet steel shield on both sides that extends into a recess on the inner ring (designation sufix -2Z)
  • with an NBR contact seal on both sides (designation sufix -2RS1)

SKF double row cam rollers are greased for the life of the bearing under normal operating conditions, and should be relubricated, if:

  • subjected to moisture or solid contaminants
  • they run for long periods at temperatures above 70 °C (160 °F)

They have a lubrication hole in the inner ring

  • Where suitable ducts are provided in the pin, the bearings are easy to relubricate.
  • The grease should be applied slowly to avoid damaging the shields or seals.
