The SKF PHC SHH series roller chain is a long-pitch chain with large-diameter rollers, designed for demanding power transmissions where strength and durability are prioritized over speed. It is used in industrial applications that require hauling high loads, such as conveyors, elevators and heavy machinery. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as an official brand, with technical advice to select the right chain for each drive.
The PHC series designation is read from left to right: PHC identifies the SKF roller chain line; the number that follows, such as 160 or 180, indicates the pitch in eighths of an inch (160 = 2", 180 = 2 1/4"). The suffix SHH indicates a long-pitch construction with larger-diameter rollers, which allows transmitting more load at the same pitch. Then, 1DRPX indicates single chain with special rollers, and the associated number (305, 362) identifies the roller diameter. The suffix LK-SV refers to a specific type of joint or chain termination.
These chains are used in industries such as cement, mining, steel, sugar and material handling. They are common in drag conveyors, bucket elevators, kiln and mill drives, and in equipment where the chain is exposed to dust, high temperatures or shock loads. In Argentina, they are found in processing plants, quarries and heavy transport systems that require robust, low-maintenance transmission.
To correctly select an SHH series PHC chain, take into account the power to be transmitted, the speed of the sprocket, the number of teeth, the center distance and the environmental conditions. It is essential to verify sprocket alignment, proper lubrication and correct tension to avoid premature wear. Sealing and protection against contaminants extend service life. If the application requires greater fatigue resistance, evaluate the use of chains with larger-diameter rollers or surface treatments.
SKF PHC roller chains are interchangeable with other brands that follow the same dimensional standards (ISO 606, ANSI B29.1) for equivalent pitches and rollers. However, differences in materials and heat treatments can affect performance. When replacing, compare not only the pitch and roller diameter, but also the type of joint and tensile strength. MR Accesorios Industriales can advise you on equivalence with other brands, without compromising the integrity of the drive.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the SHH suffix mean in an SKF PHC chain?
- SHH indicates a long-pitch construction with larger-diameter rollers. This allows transmitting higher loads at the same pitch, making it ideal for low-speed, high-demand applications.
- How do I identify the pitch of a PHC 160 or 180 chain?
- The number after PHC indicates the pitch in eighths of an inch: 160 corresponds to 2 inches and 180 to 2 1/4 inches. This measurement is key for compatibility with sprockets.
- Can I replace a chain from another brand with an SKF PHC one?
- Yes, as long as the pitch, roller diameter and type of joint match according to ISO or ANSI standards. Consult us with the original part number to verify the exact equivalence.
