RBC Cam Follower CH44LW 1.375" Outside Diameter, Heavy Duty Stud Type, Hex Head, Sealed, Crowned Outer Ring Cam Follower

RBC Cam Follower CH44LW 1.375" Outside Diameter, Heavy Duty Stud Type, Hex Head, Sealed, Crowned Outer Ring Cam Follower



  • Designed to provide additional stud strength for applications with high static loading or shock loads
  • Crowned outer ring to better accommodate applications where misalignment is present
  • Hex head design for ease of installation and high torque tightening
  • Design allows for relubrication through the hexagonal head of the cam follower, making relubrication in tight spots possible
  • Black oxide finish provides added corrosion resistance


This heavy stud RBC cam follower is part of the RBC HexLube Universal line of cam followers. It can be relubricated through the hex head which can be a great convenience in tight spaces or when stud access is impossible. A cam follower that is properly maintained and lubricated will last longer than a cam follower that is neglected due to the difficulties posed by relubrication. The hex head feature is the preferred mounting method for stud-type cam followers, and with 2 gap seals to keep contaminants out, this RBC HexLube cam follower is the versatile workhorse of the needle bearing cam follower product line. RBC HexLube Universal Cam Followers are designed for applications such as automation and production equipment, bottling and canning, printing machinery, material handling, construction equipment, transfer lines, food processing, and packaging equipment. This cam follower is manufactured with a crowned outer ring. Crowned outer rings are used to minimize outer ring thrusting in applications where the axis of the cam follower is not parallel to the surface of the track or is skewed relative to the direction of travel. Crowned outer rings are a good selection for use with curved or circular tracks. However, in well aligned applications, crowned outer rings can cause accelerated track wear. An added feature of this bearing is a heavy duty stud. Heavy studs are designed to provide additional stud strength for applications with high loading or shock loads where the stud will be subjected to high bending stresses. RBC Bearings has been providing bearing solutions to our customers since 1919. A publicly-traded company (NASDAQ: ROLL), RBC currently has 23 manufacturing facilities worldwide, with 18 located in the USA.

RBC Cam Follower Y44 1.375" OD x 0.3750" ID, Yoke Type (Without Stud), Unsealed Cam Follower

RBC Cam Follower Y44 1.375" OD x 0.3750" ID, Yoke Type (Without Stud), Unsealed Cam Follower



  • Yoke type design allows for clevis mounting which provides support on both sides of the cam follower and permits use of a high strength pin
  • Internal needle roller configuration for moderate loads
  • Considerably heavier cross section outer ring to reduce deformation under load
  • Black oxide finish provides added corrosion resistance
  • Unsealed for reduced rolling resistance


This yoke style RBC needle bearing cam follower is traditional in design, with a heavy outer ring cross section and a full complement of needle rollers. It offers high dynamic and static load carrying capability, and anti-friction performance, in a compact design. Yoke rollers are mounted with a pin in a yoke. Under load the pin is subject to shear and bending stresses. RBC recommends that the yoke arms are located as close to the yoke roller as possible. In case of widely spaced pin supports, the resulting pin deflection may cause yoke roller damage. RBC yoke rollers correspond in many respects to the same size cam follower, except they are mounted on a pin for use in yoke type applications for greater shock resistance. Yoke rollers should be clamped axially or mounted within closely fitting side rails to prevent displacement of the end plates. For applications with heavy loads, it is recommended to heat treat the pin and use a press fit for the inner ring. A soft pin and light press or push fit are sufficient for lightly loaded applications. When press fitting a yoke roller, pressure should be applied centrally and uniformly against the end plate, never against the outer ring. The pin should have a suitable lead-in chamfer or radius to prevent scoring and to hold the mounting force to a minimum. RBC Bearings has been providing bearing solutions to our customers since 1919.
