RBC Cam Followers
Minimize your stocks on cam followers.
Eliminate the need to stock both screwdriver slot and unsealed cam followers with the RBC HexLube® universal cam follower.

If you're looking to reduce your inventory levels without effecting your service, the universal design of the new RBC HexLube® Cam Follower can help you achieve it.

Hexlube offers the following benefits:
  • Unique lubricating feature
  • Dimensionally interchangeable with other needle bearing cam followers
  • Obtainable in both eccentric and crowned versions
  • Available from acorn - your authorized RBC Bearings dealer

The new HexLube® Universal line of cam followers, designed with a unique lubricating feature. The RBC HexLube® Universal Cam Follower allows for re-lubrication through the hexagonal head of the cam follower, making re-lubrication in tight spots possible. In addition, the universal design of the RBC HexLube® Cam Follower can eliminate the need to stock both screwdriver slot and unsealed cam followers. RBC expects that most customers can reduce their inventory on stud type cam followers by 50% using this new universal line. The complete line is available in sizes with an outside diameter from 3/4 inch to 7 inches.

The RBC HexLube® Universal Cam Follower design provides the easiest and fastest way to re-lubricate cam followers in hard to reach places or in applications where stud access is limited. 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 re-lubrication.

Companies looking to sharply reduce their inventory levels will recognize the value of RBC's universal design of the new HexLube® Cam Follower. By stocking the RBC HexLube® line, companies will no longer need to carry inventories of either screwdriver slot or unsealed cam followers.

The entire line of RBC HexLube® Universal Cam Followers is dimensionally interchangeable with other needle bearing cam followers. The RBC HexLube® Universal Cam Follower is available in both eccentric and crowned versions. Both standard studs and heavy studs are available as well.

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.

Track rollers or cam followers, are rolling element bearings with either an integral stud or an inseparable inner ring for yoke mounting on a pin or shaft. They are either of heavy-duty cylindrical roller, needle bearing, or ball bearing construction. Cam followers differ from conventional bearings in that all of the loading is concentrated at a single point instead of being distributed around the diameter or the bearing.
