Description
SKF PHF TBU2517X1.875 is a taper bushings and components reference, within Power transmission. Request a quote for PHF TBU2517X1.875 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.
The SKF PHF TBU taper bushing is a fastening component used to mount pulleys, gears, couplings and other elements onto cylindrical shafts. Its tapered design allows for a firm, centered fit when bolted against the element to be secured, transmitting torque through friction. It is a practical solution for assembling power transmissions in industrial equipment, and at MR Accesorios Industriales we carry it as part of our power transmission components line.
The PHF TBU designation combines letters and numbers that identify the bushing type and its size. In the PHF TBU series, the digits that follow indicate the nominal shaft diameter and the bushing length, while the suffix after the X indicates the outer diameter in inches. For example, the part number PHF TBU2517X1.875 corresponds to a bushing for a 25 mm shaft, with 17 mm length and 1.875 inches outer diameter. Knowing these values is key to choosing the correct replacement.
These bushings are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina, such as food processing, metallurgy, mining and agriculture. They are found in conveyor belts, mills, mixers, pumps and fans, where pulleys or gears need to be mounted quickly and safely. Their ability to transmit torque without play makes them ideal for equipment requiring detachable, repetitive mounting, facilitating maintenance and component replacement without damaging the shaft.
To select the right bushing, take into account the shaft diameter, the outer diameter required by the pulley or gear, and the torque to be transmitted. Mounting is done by inserting the bushing into the element and tightening the fastening screws, which generate the pressure needed for the tapered fit. It is essential to clean the surfaces, verify alignment and apply the recommended tightening torque. Lubricating the screws and using lock washers contribute to a reliable, long-lasting mounting.
As for equivalences, SKF PHF TBU taper bushings can be interchanged with other taper bushing systems from recognized brands, as long as the shaft dimensions, outer diameter and length match. It is important to verify tolerances and the fastening method, since not all bushings are compatible with each other. To ensure interchangeability, compare the measurements and the mounting type, and consult our technical team if you have doubts.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know which PHF TBU taper bushing I need?
- To choose the correct bushing, identify the shaft diameter, the outer diameter of the pulley or gear and the bushing length. The PHF TBU part number includes this data: for example, PHF TBU2517X1.875 indicates a 25 mm shaft, 17 mm length and 1.875 inches outer diameter. If you have doubts, ask us with the measurements.
- Are SKF PHF TBU bushings interchangeable with other brands?
- They can be interchangeable with taper bushings from other brands if the critical dimensions match: shaft diameter, outer diameter and length. Also verify the fastening type and tolerances. Not all bushings are compatible, so we recommend comparing the measurements before replacing.
- What care does mounting a taper bushing require?
- Before mounting, clean the shaft and the bushing seat thoroughly. Verify alignment and apply the recommended tightening torque to the screws. Lubricate the screws and use lock washers if applicable. Careful mounting prevents loosening and ensures efficient torque transmission.
