SKF couplings in the PHE F…FRTYRE line are tire-type rubber couplings, designed to absorb vibrations and misalignment between shafts in power transmissions. They are used in a wide variety of industrial machines, from pumps and fans to conveyor belts and mills. Their robust construction and their ability to dampen dynamic loads make them ideal for demanding environments. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as part of its power transmission catalog, with more than 80 years of experience in the field.
The PHE F…FRTYRE designation is read as follows: PHE indicates the SKF coupling category, F indicates the rubber coupling type, and the number that follows (for example, 40, 50, 60, etc.) refers to the size or capacity of the coupling. The FRTYRE suffix specifies that it is a coupling with a tire-type rubber elastic element. Examples such as PHE F40FRTYRE or PHE F80FRTYRE show how the size varies depending on the application. Each size is designed for a specific power and torque range, although these values should be checked in the corresponding data sheet.
These couplings are used in industries such as food, chemical, petrochemical, cement and water treatment, among others. They are common in centrifugal pumps, fans, blowers, compressors, conveyor belts and mixers. In Argentina, they are found in production plants, refineries and mining facilities. Their ability to compensate for angular and parallel misalignment reduces wear on bearings and seals, extending equipment service life. In addition, the rubber element helps reduce vibrations and noise transmitted through the structure.
To select the right coupling, take into account the required torque, the rotation speed, the shaft diameter and the expected degree of misalignment. Assembly must be carried out with careful alignment, using feeler gauges or dial indicators. Lubrication is not required for this type of coupling, but periodic inspection of the rubber element is, to detect cracks or deformation. The coupling seal protects against dust and moisture. It is essential to respect the assembly tolerances and not force the elastic element during installation.
As for equivalences and interchangeability, SKF PHE F…FRTYRE couplings can replace other rubber couplings from competing brands, as long as the critical dimensions are respected: outer diameter, length, shaft diameter and keyway type. However, not all couplings are directly interchangeable; torque capacity and maximum speed must be verified. SKF is a globally recognized brand, and MR Accesorios Industriales carries it as an official brand.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the FRTYRE suffix mean in SKF couplings?
- The FRTYRE suffix indicates that the coupling has a tire-type rubber elastic element, designed to absorb vibrations and misalignment. It is part of the designation that identifies the coupling's construction type within the PHE line.
- Do PHE F…FRTYRE couplings need lubrication?
- No, these couplings do not require lubrication because their elastic element is made of rubber and runs dry. Only a periodic visual inspection is recommended to detect wear or cracks in the rubber.
- How do I choose the right coupling size for my application?
- To choose the size, consider the torque, the rotation speed, the shaft diameter and the expected misalignment. You can contact us with your equipment data and we will advise you on selecting the right model.
