Overview
The McGill CCF-7/8-SB cam follower bearing is a sealed, stud-mounted crowned roller bearing engineered for precision mechanical automation and linear motion systems. Built with black oxide-treated bearing steel and needle rolling elements, the CCF-7/8-SB delivers consistent performance in demanding industrial environments. The LUBRI-DISC seal prevents metal-to-metal contact, minimizes contaminant entry, and allows venting of excess grease—extending service life while reducing maintenance frequency.
Key Features
- Crowned needle roller design – Provides precision tracking and load distribution across the cam profile
- Full-complement needle bearing – Maximum load-carrying capacity in a compact envelope
- LUBRI-DISC sealed closure – Sealed bearing prevents contamination and reduces lubrication loss
- Black oxide finish – Corrosion-resistant coating for harsh industrial environments
- Hex hole head design – Standard 3/8-24 stud thread for secure mounting
- Stud-mount configuration – Quick installation and easy replacement in cam-follower assemblies
Technical Specifications
The McGill CCF-7/8-SB is rated for 5400 RPM maximum speed with a 1660 lbf radial dynamic load capacity and 2065 lbf static load capacity. The bearing features a 0.8750-inch crowned roller diameter, 0.5000-inch roller width, and 0.3750-inch standard stud diameter with 3/8-24 UNC thread. Unit weight is 0.11 pounds, and the bearing is sealed with the proven LUBRI-DISC protection system.
