Smith Bearing Cam Follower CR-2-XBE
This cam follower uses a needle-roller bearing made from AISI 52100 alloy steel for reliable linear motion. The stud features a 7/8-14 thread and an eccentric design that allows positional adjustment during installation. A hex socket in the stud head provides the drive interface. Double contact seals protect the rolling elements from contamination.
Suited for machinery needing adjustable roller
Engineers specifying standard-duty cam followers with inch-series threads will find the dimensions match the drawing. The flat roller head runs against a track or cam surface. Buyers who need a concentric stud or a different thread pitch should look at alternative configurations. Applications requiring heavier radial capacity than a single row of needle rollers provides will require a different bearing type.
Sealed needle roller under continuous operation
The contact seals retain lubricant and exclude debris during extended running, reducing maintenance intervals. Alloy-steel construction on both the roller and stud resists wear under sustained contact loads. The eccentric stud permits fine alignment to distribute load evenly across the roller width. Heat generated during prolonged cycles is dissipated through the steel body without external cooling provisions.

Questions about this item
What thread size must the mounting hole have for the CR-2-XBE stud to fit?
The stud uses a 7/8-14 thread so the mounting hole must match that pitch and diameter.
Will the eccentric stud allow adjustment if I keep my existing track?
The eccentric stud design provides radial adjustment on the same track centre-line.
How can I confirm the needle rollers are rotating smoothly after installation?
Turn the roller by hand; it should spin freely without binding or excessive play.
