SKF roller chains from the PHC line are power transmission components designed to link sprockets and transmit motion in a wide variety of machines. Their robust construction and dimensional precision make them suitable for demanding industrial environments where reliability and durability are required. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this brand, offering technical advice to select the right chain for the application.
The designation of SKF PHC chains follows ISO 606. The number indicates the pitch: 06B, 08B, 10B, 12B and 16B are the most common. The suffix -1 or -2 indicates whether it is single or double strand. SLRX refers to the surface treatment of pins and bushings for greater wear resistance, and MTR indicates the type of lubrication and sealing. Knowing these codes allows you to quickly identify the characteristics of each chain.
These chains are used in a wide range of industrial applications in Argentina: from conveyors in food and beverage plants to drives in agricultural, textile, cement and mining equipment. Their versatility makes them common in the metallurgical, paper and packaging industries. Wear resistance and the ability to transmit high loads position them as a reliable solution for dusty or humid environments, provided the appropriate sealing is selected.
To correctly select a chain, it is essential to consider the power to be transmitted, the speed, the type of load and the environmental conditions. Installation requires precise alignment of the sprockets, checking the correct tension and ensuring proper lubrication. Chains with SLRX treatment offer longer service life in applications with high loads or moderate speeds. It is important to periodically check wear and elongation to avoid premature failure. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you according to your specific application.
Regarding equivalences, SKF PHC chains are interchangeable with other brands that follow ISO 606, such as series 06B, 08B, etc. from various manufacturers. However, it is recommended to verify tolerances and surface treatment, as they may vary between brands. The numerical designation facilitates comparison, but it is always advisable to consult a specialist before replacing one chain with another from a different manufacturer. Interchangeability is given by compliance with the standard, not by a specific homologation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the SLRX suffix mean on an SKF PHC chain?
- SLRX indicates a special surface treatment on pins and bushings that improves wear resistance and extends the chain's service life, especially in applications with high loads or contaminated environments.
- How do I choose between a single and a double chain?
- The choice depends on the power to be transmitted and the available space. Double chains (suffix -2) withstand higher loads and are used when a single one is not enough, but they require double-row sprockets.
- Are SKF PHC chains compatible with sprockets from other brands?
- Yes, as long as the sprockets comply with ISO 606 for the corresponding pitch. It is essential to verify the number of teeth and the pitch to ensure correct meshing and avoid premature wear.
