The SKF PHC roller chain is an essential component in power transmission systems. Designed to withstand high loads and high speeds, this chain offers reliable performance in demanding industrial applications. Its robust construction and dimensional precision guarantee a long service life and smooth operation. It is ideal for agricultural machinery, conveying equipment, the food industry and many other applications where efficient and durable transmission is required.
The designation of the PHC series is interpreted as follows: the number following PHC indicates the chain pitch in eighths of an inch (for example, 50 corresponds to 5/8", 60 to 3/4", 80 to 1"). Then, the hyphen and the number (1, 2, 3) indicate the number of strands: single, double or triple. The letters CX and FT refer to specific chain features, such as the type of roller and the surface treatment. For example, PHC 50-1CX10FT is a 5/8" pitch chain, single strand, 10 feet long.
These chains are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina, such as agriculture (transmission in seeders, harvesters), food (conveyors, packaging machines), mining (crushing equipment), textile and wood. They are also common in lifting systems and machine tools. Their versatility makes them suitable for environments with dust, humidity or moderate temperatures, provided proper maintenance is performed.
To select the correct chain, take into account the power to be transmitted, the rotation speed, the number of sprocket teeth and the center distance. It is essential to verify shaft alignment and proper tension to avoid premature wear. Lubrication is key: choose the lubricant according to the speed and working temperature. Also, periodically check elongation and roller wear. Careful assembly extends the service life of the system.
SKF PHC chains are interchangeable with other brands that follow the ANSI standard, such as series 40, 50, 60, 80, etc. When replacing a chain, verify that the pitch, number of strands and length match. If you need an exact equivalence, consult us with the original chain code and we will advise you. At MR Accesorios Industriales we carry SKF as an official brand, and we can help you find the right chain for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the number in the designation PHC 50-1CX10FT mean?
- The 50 indicates the chain pitch in eighths of an inch (5/8"). The 1 indicates it is single strand. CX and FT are features of the roller type and treatment. 10FT indicates the length in feet.
- Are SKF PHC chains compatible with sprockets from other brands?
- Yes, as long as the sprockets comply with the ANSI standard and have the same pitch and number of strands. It is important to verify that the pitch and chain type match to ensure correct operation.
- What lubrication do you recommend for SKF PHC roller chains?
- A good quality oil or grease is recommended, suitable for the operating speed and temperature. In dusty environments, use lubricants that do not attract particles. Regular lubrication reduces wear and extends service life.
