How the KR26-PP model number is decoded
envelope 10×26×36 mm: the 26 mm outside diameter is the track-running surface — a thick-walled outer ring over a 10 mm stud — and the 36 mm overall stud-and-roller length sets the required bracket clearance the catalogue lists C 5.1 kN and C0 6.5 kN for the KR stud-type cam follower with needle roller and cage assembly; the C/C0 ratio of 0.78 reflects a rolling-element pack sized for heavy static track loading, and the 8.0 mm radial section gives the outer ring its bending stiffness fatigue load limit Cur is 0.86 kN at 10 mm stud, equivalent to 0.51 kN of dynamic rating per millimetre — the limiting speed is 8,000 r/min and, as for HR1 track rollers, no thermal reference speed is published the 10 mm threaded stud clamps directly into the machine bracket; over the roller running width the dynamic rating works out to 0.14 kN per millimetre of rolling-element complement within the 36 mm overall stud length mass is 57 g, or 0.06 g per mm² of the 26×36 mm track envelope — inertia that the drive must accelerate on every index of the cam 10 mm stud shank and only 57 g: the smallest sizes demand accurate shaft geometry, because the 8.0 mm section leaves no tolerance for a soft or tapered seat The crowned outer-ring profile is the standard form: it distributes edge stress when the cam track is not perfectly parallel, and a cylindrical-profile variant would be ordered separately Reading -PP: rubbing seals at each face of the 26 mm outer ring; they protect the rolling-element pack in abrasive track environments at the cost of a small drag torque. Typical applications include cam drives and indexing tables, printing press sheet-transfer grippers and woodworking machine feed tracks, where the 26 mm track diameter and 5.1 kN dynamic rating match the duty. In cam drives and indexing tables the threaded stud bolts directly to the frame, and in printing press sheet-transfer grippers the 57 g mass keeps follower kinetics light. Designers also specify it for woodworking machine feed tracks, relying on the 36 mm stud length and the published 6.5 kN static rating. Full-complement followers trade speed for static capacity — apply the lower limiting speed and expect higher drive torque than a caged KR. The stud must be fully supported and the nut torqued to the catalogue value; a loose follower wears the bracket hole oval and loosens further.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- robotic arm linear axes
- cam drives and indexing tables
- conveyor transfer and diverting stations
- automotive welding jig rollers
Known failure patterns
- stud bending and loosening when the shank is not fully supported by the bracket
- bracket hole fretting and ovalisation under an under-torqued mounting nut
- outer-ring fatigue at the cam contact from overloading beyond the track-rated C0
- flat spots on full-complement followers during short-stroke oscillation
- seal destruction and grease loss above the limiting speed on PP/2RS executions
- edge loading after the crowned profile bottoms out against a badly skewed cam
- eccentric-collar slippage when the lock nut is not re-torqued after adjustment
- lubricant starvation of the stud contact when the relubrication interval is ignored
- stud-thread damage from hammering or from using the hex socket as a press point
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- Full-complement followers trade speed for static capacity — apply the lower limiting speed and expect higher drive torque than a caged KR.
- The stud must be fully supported and the nut torqued to the catalogue value; a loose follower wears the bracket hole oval and loosens further.
- The eccentric collar throw is small (typically around 1 mm); it removes clearance, it cannot repair a grossly misplaced bracket.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the KR26-PP?
The KR26-PP is a KR stud-type cam follower with needle roller and cage assembly with 26 mm outside diameter, 10 mm stud diameter and 36 mm overall length, envelope 10×26×36 mm. Mass is 57 g.
What does the KR26-PP designation mean in the FAG/INA HR1 catalogue?
KR26-PP identifies this KR stud-type cam follower with needle roller and cage assembly in the Schaeffler HR1 rolling bearings catalogue. The envelope is 10×26×36 mm and the catalogue ratings are C 5.1 kN, C0 6.5 kN, Cur 0.86 kN.
What is the load capacity of the KR26-PP?
The basic dynamic load rating C is 5.1 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 6.5 kN; the fatigue load limit Cur is 0.86 kN. For track rollers these values already cover the thick-walled outer ring bending case on an unsupported track.
What is the maximum speed of the KR26-PP?
HR1 lists a limiting speed of 8,000 r/min for track rollers and no thermal reference speed. The crowned thick-walled outer ring and (on stud types) the stud contact make the limiting speed the governing figure.
How is a stud-type roller like the KR26-PP fitted and adjusted?
The 10 mm threaded stud passes through the bracket and is clamped with its nut and washer against a flat face; torque to the catalogue value and support the shank over its full length. The 26 mm outer ring then runs directly on the cam.
