How the NUKR-35-A model number is decoded

the 35 mm outside diameter runs on the track while the 16 mm stud shank takes the pin or shaft; the 52 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact over the outer ring published ratings C 16.8 kN and C0 17.6 kN already include the bending-stress correction for the unsupported outer ring — the C/C0 ratio of 0.95 is typical for full-complement cylindrical-roller cam follower executions fatigue load limit Pu 2 kN at 16 mm stud gives a specific load of 1.05 kN per mm; the limiting speed is 5,000 r/min the 52 mm width carries the load at 0.32 kN per mm of roller complement; section height 9.5 mm between stud and track surface determines the outer-ring bending stiffness mass 160 g over a 35x52 mm envelope works out to 0.088 g per mm² of projected area — a useful figure when sizing the drive inertia for medium-high-speed cam duty at 16 mm stud this size balances load capacity and envelope compactness — a frequent pick for packaging machines and printing press linkages NUKR is the heavy-duty stud-type track roller: two full rows of cylindrical rollers without cage give the highest dynamic capacity of the cam follower range typical applications include food processing line track rollers, printing press roller followers and automotive welding jig positioners this size is commonly specified for food processing line track rollers and printing press roller followers, where the 35 mm track diameter and 16 mm stud fit standard cam and rail geometries in automotive welding jig positioners the 35 mm outer ring provides the rolling contact while the threaded stud simplifies mounting; the 160 g mass is low enough for rapid indexing cycles the two cylindrical roller rows share the outer ring bending load; a misaligned track concentrates the load on one row and halves the life the stud head and pressed-on flange ring provide the only axial guidance — side thrust from a helical cam can dislodge the flange

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • packaging machine timing cams
  • food processing line track rollers
  • glass processing line conveyors
  • linear guide and track systems

Known failure patterns

  • the two cylindrical roller rows share the outer ring bending load; a misaligned track concentrates the load on one row and halves the life
  • the stud head and pressed-on flange ring provide the only axial guidance — side thrust from a helical cam can dislodge the flange
  • full-complement cylindrical rollers are stiff but unforgiving: any shaft deflection directly increases edge stress
  • the twin-row construction is the widest cam follower option; verify the track channel width accommodates the full B dimension
  • the heavy section and full complement make this the stiffest cam follower — any stud bending directly increases edge stress
  • the cylindrical rollers are crowned at the ends to reduce edge stress; do not confuse this with the PPA crowned outer-ring profile

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • the stud head and pressed-on flange ring provide the only axial guidance — side thrust from a helical cam can dislodge the flange
  • the two cylindrical roller rows share the outer ring bending load; a misaligned track concentrates the load on one row and halves the life
  • full-complement cylindrical rollers are stiff but unforgiving: any shaft deflection directly increases edge stress

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of the NUKR-35-A?

NUKR-35-A is a full-complement cylindrical-roller cam follower with 35 mm outside diameter, 16 mm stud shank diameter and 52 mm overall width. The stud is 16 mm and the track contact diameter is 35 mm.

What does the NUKR designation mean?

The NUKR prefix identifies this as a full-complement cylindrical-roller cam follower. In the SKF catalogue this designation carries the full specification including the 35x16x52 mm envelope and the 5000 r/min limiting speed.

What is the load capacity of NUKR-35-A?

The published basic dynamic load rating C is 16.8 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 17.6 kN. These values already include the bending-stress correction for the thick-walled outer ring running on a track.
