Accurate Bushing CR-1 Plain Stud Cam Follower Steel

Product Description

The ACCURATE BUSHING CR-1 is a plain stud cam follower designed for use in linear and rotary motion applications where a rolling contact element rides against a track, rail, or cam surface. Built with a needle roller bearing internally, this follower delivers efficient load transfer in a compact profile. The steel roller measures 1 inch in diameter and 0.625 inches in width, with a 0.4375-inch stud diameter and a 1-inch stud length. Dynamic load capacity is rated at 3,030 pounds, and static load capacity reaches 3,100 pounds. The unsealed construction suits applications in clean, controlled environments where frequent maintenance access is feasible. Typical installers include mechanical maintenance technicians and machine builders working with cam-driven or track-guided assemblies.

This cam follower is suited for industrial machinery, conveyor systems, cam mechanisms, and linear guidance applications in both light manufacturing and general mechanical assembly environments. The slotted head style allows for installation and adjustment using standard hand tools. The 7/16-20 threaded stud with a 0.5-inch thread length provides secure fastening to compatible mounting surfaces. Applications typically involve moderate to high radial loads in repetitive cyclical motion scenarios.

Key Features

• Needle roller bearing construction for efficient radial load handling under cyclic motion
• Steel roller with non-crowned profile for consistent track contact across the full roller width
• 3,030-pound dynamic load capacity and 3,100-pound static load capacity
• 7/16-20 threaded stud with 0.5-inch thread length for straightforward mounting
• Slotted head type allows installation and positional adjustment with common hand tools
• Unsealed design for use in clean environments where periodic inspection is standard practice

Compatibility

Designed as a standard stud cam follower for use in industrial cam and track systems requiring a 1-inch roller diameter, 0.4375-inch stud diameter, and 7/16-20 thread size.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a mechanical or maintenance technician. Ensure all associated machinery is fully de-energized and locked out before installing or removing cam followers. Thread the stud into the mounting bore to the appropriate engagement depth using the slotted head; verify that thread engagement meets the requirements of the assembly design. As an unsealed bearing, this follower should be inspected regularly and kept free of contaminants to maintain rated load performance.
