BOYNTON BEACH, Fla., Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Boca Bearing Company is pleased to announce the availability of its comprehensive line of cam followers and cam yokes—critical components widely used in mechanical systems to efficiently convert rotary motion into linear motion, and vice versa.
Cam followers, also known as track followers, incorporate rolling elements such as rollers or needles to provide smooth motion in demanding environments. Available in stud-style, which utilizes a stud mount, or yoke-style, featuring a through-hole for mounting, these bearings are engineered to follow the surface of cams—rotating components with irregular profiles—enabling precise back-and-forth linear movement as the cam rotates. This makes them ideal for applications involving high loads and speeds, including engines and industrial machinery.
Cam yokes complement these systems by housing roller bearings mounted on the arms of the yoke. As the camshaft rotates, the cam yoke tracks the cam surface and translates rotary motion into linear movement via the roller bearing, providing reliable and precise performance in complex mechanical assemblies.
Both cam followers and cam yokes deliver high efficiency, durability, and reliability in converting motion, playing essential roles in mechanical systems demanding precision and endurance.
To assist clients in specifying the exact components, Boca Bearing Company provides detailed part number designations including:
RD: Roller Diameter
W: Roller Width
