How the NUKR-47-A model number is decoded
the 47 mm outside diameter runs on the track while the 20 mm stud shank takes the pin or shaft; the 66 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact over the outer ring published ratings C 28.6 kN and C0 33.5 kN already include the bending-stress correction for the unsupported outer ring — the C/C0 ratio of 0.85 is typical for full-complement cylindrical-roller cam follower executions fatigue load limit Pu 3.9 kN at 20 mm stud gives a specific load of 1.43 kN per mm; the limiting speed is 3,800 r/min the 66 mm width carries the load at 0.43 kN per mm of roller complement; section height 13.5 mm between stud and track surface determines the outer-ring bending stiffness mass 380 g over a 47x66 mm envelope works out to 0.123 g per mm² of projected area — a useful figure when sizing the drive inertia for medium-speed cam duty at 20 mm stud this size balances load capacity and envelope compactness — a frequent pick for packaging machines and printing press linkages reading NUKR: double-row full-complement cylindrical roller cam follower; the 20 mm stud carries the two roller rows and the outer ring is guided axially by the flange ring typical applications include robotic arm track guidance, paper mill web guide rollers and automatic assembly machine linkages this size is commonly specified for robotic arm track guidance and paper mill web guide rollers, where the 47 mm track diameter and 20 mm stud fit standard cam and rail geometries in automatic assembly machine linkages the 47 mm outer ring provides the rolling contact while the threaded stud simplifies mounting; the 380 g mass is low enough for rapid indexing cycles the cylindrical rollers are crowned at the ends to reduce edge stress; do not confuse this with the PPA crowned outer-ring profile the two cylindrical roller rows share the outer ring bending load; a misaligned track concentrates the load on one row and halves the life
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- sheet-metal forming press feeds
- robotic arm track guidance
- textile machine cam drives
- agricultural equipment cam followers
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

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the NUKR-47-A?
NUKR-47-A is a full-complement cylindrical-roller cam follower with 47 mm outside diameter, 20 mm stud shank diameter and 66 mm overall width. The stud is 20 mm and the track contact diameter is 47 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 47x20x66 mm envelope and the 3800 r/min limiting speed.
What is the load capacity of NUKR-47-A?
The published basic dynamic load rating C is 28.6 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 33.5 kN. These values already include the bending-stress correction for the thick-walled outer ring running on a track.
