How the KRE-35-PPA model number is decoded

the 35 mm outside diameter runs on the track while the 20 mm stud shank takes the pin or shaft; the 52 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact over the outer ring published ratings C 9.52 kN and C0 13.7 kN already include the bending-stress correction for the unsupported outer ring — the C/C0 ratio of 0.69 is typical for cam follower with eccentric collar executions fatigue load limit Pu 1.56 kN at 20 mm stud gives a specific load of 0.48 kN per mm; the limiting speed is 4,000 r/min the 52 mm width carries the load at 0.18 kN per mm of roller complement; section height 7.5 mm between stud and track surface determines the outer-ring bending stiffness mass 180 g over a 35x52 mm envelope works out to 0.099 g per mm² of projected area — a useful figure when sizing the drive inertia for medium-speed cam duty the 20 mm stud shank puts this in the small-to-medium transition where the roller complement is still needle-type but the outer ring is thick enough for moderate shock loads reading KRE: cam follower with eccentric adjustment collar; the collar seat on the 20 mm stud is offset so a spanner turn re-centres the roller on the cam reading the PPA suffix: crowned outer ring — the track contact is barrel-shaped to tolerate angular misalignment between the roller axis and the track typical applications include linear guide and track systems, robotic arm track guidance and paper mill web guide rollers this size is commonly specified for linear guide and track systems and robotic arm track guidance, where the 35 mm track diameter and 20 mm stud fit standard cam and rail geometries in paper mill web guide rollers the 35 mm outer ring provides the rolling contact while the threaded stud simplifies mounting; the 180 g mass is low enough for rapid indexing cycles do not use the eccentric collar to compensate for gross track misalignment; the adjustment range is typically only 0.5–1.0 mm mark the collar position before disassembly; reassembly without the original setting loses the preload calibration

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • paper mill web guide rollers
  • linear guide and track systems
  • automatic assembly machine linkages
  • food processing line track rollers

Known failure patterns

  • the eccentric collar is a friction fit on the stud — do not hammer it; use the correct spanner to rotate it to the preload setting
  • after adjusting the eccentric collar, re-torque the stud nut; the collar setting changes the stud engagement length
  • the eccentric adjustment range is limited; if the required offset exceeds the collar throw, the bracket must be re-machined
  • the eccentric collar is a friction fit — excessive adjustment force can score the stud surface and create a stress concentration
  • do not use the eccentric collar to compensate for gross track misalignment; the adjustment range is typically only 0.5–1.0 mm
  • mark the collar position before disassembly; reassembly without the original setting loses the preload calibration

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • mark the collar position before disassembly; reassembly without the original setting loses the preload calibration
  • do not use the eccentric collar to compensate for gross track misalignment; the adjustment range is typically only 0.5–1.0 mm
  • the eccentric collar is a friction fit on the stud — do not hammer it; use the correct spanner to rotate it to the preload setting

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of the KRE-35-PPA?

KRE-35-PPA is a cam follower with eccentric collar with 35 mm outside diameter, 20 mm stud shank diameter and 52 mm overall width. The stud is 20 mm and the track contact diameter is 35 mm.

What does the KRE designation mean?

The KRE prefix identifies this as a cam follower with eccentric collar. In the SKF catalogue this designation carries the full specification including the 35x20x52 mm envelope and the 4000 r/min limiting speed.

What is the load capacity of KRE-35-PPA?

The published basic dynamic load rating C is 9.52 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 13.7 kN. These values already include the bending-stress correction for the thick-walled outer ring running on a track.
