Roller Followers

IKO Roller Followers are bearings designed for outer ring rotation, in which needle rollers are incorporated in a thick walled outer ring. Both crowned and cylindrical outer rings are available. The outer rings run directly on mating track surfaces, and the crowned outer ring is effective in relieving the edge load caused by mounting errors. The cylindrical outer ring, on the other hand, has a large contact area with the mating track surface and is suitable for applications involving large loads or low track surface hardness.

Key Features

Caged type is useful for applications at high-speed rotation.
Full complement type is suitable for heavy-load applications at low-speed rotation or oscillating motions.
Widely used for cam mechanisms and for linear motions of conveying equipment.
