SKF Cam Follower Roller Stud, 24mm ID, 72mm OD, Stud Type, Roller Bearing, KR 72 PP

The SKF KR 72 PP Cam Follower Roller Stud is engineered for precision guidance and load support in reciprocating and cam-driven mechanical systems. With its 24mm bore diameter and 72mm outer diameter roller, this cam follower is well-suited for applications where high dynamic and static load carrying capacity is essential. The stud type construction incorporates robust roller needle bearings and a thick outer ring, making it durable enough for applications with significant shock and impact loads.

This SKF cam follower features a concentric stud design. An integral flange at the head of the stud and a pressed-on side washer guide the outer ring for enhanced operating concentricity and stability. The cam follower utilizes polyamide 66 axial slide rings, enabling reduced friction and relatively cool operation, which directly benefits grease service life and bearing longevity. In the radial direction, the slide ring creates a narrow gap to the outer ring, providing excellent protection against coarse contamination from the operating environment.

The PPA design of the SKF KR 72 PP includes an improved runner surface profile and a crowned running surface, which results in superior stress distribution even under conditions of misalignment. These design advances ensure reliable performance across a broad range of industrial sectors.

The cam follower is supplied factory-filled with grease and features lubricating nipples that allow for re-lubrication at both the head and the thread end of the stud. A wide operating temperature range from -30°C to +100°C enables deployment in diverse applications, including heavy-duty manufacturing equipment, construction machinery, automation lines, conveyors, and material handling systems.

Key benefits include high dynamic load rating of 29200N, static load rating of 53000N, easy re-lubrication, robust roller construction, and a maintenance-friendly design. The cam follower's structural optimization makes it ideal for industrial and mechanical automation systems where reliable motion control and durability are paramount.

Typical industrial uses include textile machinery, packaging equipment, material transfer systems, conveyor assemblies, and cam-driven lifter mechanisms. The SKF brand ensures global compatibility, quality, and performance within professional engineering and maintenance environments.
