The cam follower roller device provides a tappet body, a pin mounted into the tappet body, and a roller mounted on the pin and provided with an outer surface and with end faces, axially delimiting the outer surface. At least one lubricant supply through-hole is formed into the thickness of the tappet body and locally faces an edge of the roller delimited between the outer surface and one of the end faces.
