SKF taper bushings from the PHF TB line are power transmission components that allow pulleys, gears, sprockets and other elements to be mounted on cylindrical shafts. Their self-centering taper design makes alignment and adjustment easier, and the screw fastening system provides a firm, removable connection. They are used in a wide variety of industrial and agricultural applications.
The PHF TB designation identifies SKF taper bushings. The number that follows, such as 1008 or 1108, indicates the bushing size: the first two digits relate to the maximum bore diameter and the last two to the outside diameter and the length. The letter X separates the bushing code from the shaft diameter in inches, which may be expressed as fractions, for example 0.5, 0.75 or 0.375. Thus, PHF TB1008X0.5 corresponds to a 1008 bushing for a 1/2 inch shaft. Always verify the actual shaft diameter before choosing.
These bushings are used in industries such as food, agriculture, mining and manufacturing, where torque must be transmitted between a shaft and a machine element. They are common in conveyors, mixers, pumps, fans and process equipment. In Argentina, they are found in food plants, flour mills, aggregate processing plants and agricultural machinery. Their self-centering capability and simple mounting make them suitable for applications that require reliable fastening and the possibility of disassembly without damaging the shaft.
To select a taper bushing, take into account the shaft diameter, the bore diameter of the element to be mounted and the torque to be transmitted. Mounting is done by inserting the bushing into the hub of the pulley or gear, aligning the holes and tightening the screws gradually and evenly. It is important to clean the taper surfaces and apply the tightening torque recommended by the manufacturer. Lubrication is not required on the taper, but it is on the adjacent bearings or bushings. Correct alignment prevents vibration and premature wear.
As for equivalences, SKF PHF TB taper bushings are interchangeable with other brands that make bushings of standardized dimensions, such as TB-type bushings. However, it is essential to verify the exact dimensions and the fastening system, since there may be variations in the screws or tolerances. Not all brands are identical. For this reason, it is always advisable to compare drawings or physical samples before replacing one bushing with another from a different source.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do you choose the size of an SKF PHF TB taper bushing?
- It must be selected according to the shaft diameter and the bore diameter of the element to be mounted. The code includes the bushing size and the shaft diameter in inches. Verify the actual measurements before requesting a quote.
- Are SKF PHF TB bushings compatible with other brands?
- They may be interchangeable with bushings of standardized dimensions from other brands, but tolerances and the fastening system must be verified. Not all bushings are identical, so comparing drawings or samples is recommended.
- What care does the mounting of a taper bushing require?
- The taper surfaces must be cleaned, the holes aligned and the screws tightened gradually and evenly. The torque recommended by the manufacturer must be applied. Lubrication is applied to the adjacent components, not to the taper.
