How the 361202-R model number is decoded

the 40 mm outside diameter is the crowned track contact surface, the 15 mm bore takes the pin and the 11 mm overall width spreads the Hertzian contact across the thick-walled outer ring published ratings C 7.02 kN and C0 3.2 kN already include the outer-ring bending correction that track rollers require; the C/C0 ratio of 2.19 reflects a single deep groove ball set fatigue load limit Pu 0.137 kN against a 15 mm bore gives 0.47 kN per mm of bore, and the 9,500 r/min figure is a mechanical limit rather than a thermal one the maximum permissible radial loads are Fr 5.1 kN dynamically and F0r 7.35 kN statically; because the permissible static load is the lower of F0r and C0, the 3.2 kN figure governs static selection here the 11 mm width carries 0.64 kN per mm, the ring section measures 12.5 mm between bore and track surface, and 72 g over a 40x11 mm envelope is 0.164 g per mm2 of projected area for medium-high-speed cam duty the 15 mm bore and 11 mm width are those of the 62 series ball bearing at the same size code, while the 40 mm outside diameter is 5 mm larger than that bearing's 35 mm OD — this follows the SKF rule that cam rollers keep the ISO 15 dimension series except for the outside diameter the 15 mm bore falls in the small band, the workhorse size for general cam drives, packaging machine linkages and conveyor diverters where the 40 mm crowned ring rides directly on the cam profile the 3612 designation means the lightest cam roller design in the chapter, based on a single deep groove ball set; the R suffix marks the NBR contact seals that keep the factory grease fill in place for life the crowned running surface is standard on this design — the 40 mm ring is ground to a radius of 400 mm so that a slightly misaligned or deflecting track does not concentrate load on one edge typical duties are woodworking machinery feed cams, bottle filling carousel cams and automatic assembly line actuators this size is regularly specified for woodworking machinery feed cams and bottle filling carousel cams, where the 40 mm ring rides the cam profile and the 15 mm bore takes a g6 pin the single ball row and the 11 mm wide ring make automatic assembly line actuators a natural fit; the 72 g mass keeps the follower inertia low enough for rapid indexing cycles the single row design has the lowest tilting-moment capacity in the chapter; if the cam track is not parallel to the roller axis, the load moves onto one edge of the ring heat stabilisation here only reaches 120 degC, so exposure to higher temperatures will dimensionally destabilise the rings and shorten the seal life

Typical equipment & failure modes

Common applications

  • automatic assembly line actuators
  • woodworking machinery feed cams
  • robotic gantry track guidance
  • printing press linkage rollers

Known failure patterns

  • the crowned running surface is standard, so the track must still be a smooth continuous profile — a step or weld spatter on the cam will brinell the ball raceway
  • the NBR contact seals make this a greased-for-life unit; adding a relubrication line is pointless and forcing grease past the lips can dislodge them
  • the permissible static load is the lower of F0r and C0, not C0 alone — sizing on C0 will overload the outer ring in a static or slow-motion cam position
  • the pin must be machined to g6; an undersized or worn pin lets the inner ring creep and changes the effective internal clearance
  • the single row design has the lowest tilting-moment capacity in the chapter; if the cam track is not parallel to the roller axis, the load moves onto one edge of the ring
  • heat stabilisation here only reaches 120 degC, so exposure to higher temperatures will dimensionally destabilise the rings and shorten the seal life

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

  • the single row design has the lowest tilting-moment capacity in the chapter; if the cam track is not parallel to the roller axis, the load moves onto one edge of the ring

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of 361202-R?

361202-R is a single row cam roller with a 15 mm bore, 40 mm outside diameter and 11 mm overall width. The 40 mm ring is the track contact surface and the 15 mm bore takes a pin machined to tolerance class g6.

What does the R designation mean?

361202 R is the SKF catalogue designation: the 3612 prefix fixes the single row deep groove basis with a thick-walled outer ring, and the R suffix means NBR contact seals on both sides.

What is the load capacity of 361202-R?

The basic dynamic load rating C is 7.02 kN and the basic static load rating C0 is 3.2 kN, both already corrected for outer-ring bending. The maximum permissible radial loads are Fr 5.1 kN and F0r 7.35 kN, and the permissible static load is the lower of F0r and C0.
