How the KRV-26-PPA model number is decoded

the 26 mm outside diameter runs on the track while the 10 mm stud shank takes the pin or shaft; the 36 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact over the outer ring published ratings C 6.82 kN and C0 11 kN already include the bending-stress correction for the unsupported outer ring — the C/C0 ratio of 0.62 is typical for full-complement cam follower with needle rollers executions fatigue load limit Pu 1.25 kN at 10 mm stud gives a specific load of 0.68 kN per mm; the limiting speed is 3,600 r/min the 36 mm width carries the load at 0.19 kN per mm of roller complement; section height 8.0 mm between stud and track surface determines the outer-ring bending stiffness mass 59 g over a 26x36 mm envelope works out to 0.063 g per mm² of projected area — a useful figure when sizing the drive inertia for medium-speed cam duty the 10 mm stud places this in the smallest catalogue tier — typical for instrument cams, small conveyors and precision linear guides where space is at a premium KRV removes the cage to maximise the needle roller count in the 26 mm envelope; the result is the highest static capacity of the stud-type needle cam followers, with a corresponding drop in permissible speed PPA changes the outer-ring profile from cylindrical to crowned; the barrel shape lowers edge stress when the cam track is not perfectly parallel to the roller axis typical applications include sheet-metal forming press feeds, textile machine cam drives and agricultural equipment cam followers this size is commonly specified for sheet-metal forming press feeds and textile machine cam drives, where the 26 mm track diameter and 10 mm stud fit standard cam and rail geometries in agricultural equipment cam followers the 26 mm outer ring provides the rolling contact while the threaded stud simplifies mounting; the 59 g mass is low enough for rapid indexing cycles the heavy roller pack and full complement make this the highest-inertia cam follower; verify the drive can accelerate the mass at the required cam rate full-complement needle rollers have no cage to separate them — momentary unloading can let rollers skew and jam in the track

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• the full complement is sensitive to contamination — any particle that enters the raceway can jam the roller pack and score the track
• the heavy roller pack and full complement make this the highest-inertia cam follower; verify the drive can accelerate the mass at the required cam rate
• full-complement needle rollers have no cage to separate them — momentary unloading can let rollers skew and jam in the track
