SKF section C V-belts, identified by the PHG code, are power transmission components used to link pulleys and transmit motion between shafts. Their classic V profile provides good grip and vibration absorption in a wide variety of machines. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as part of its power transmission offering, with advice to choose the right size for each application.

The designation of these belts combines the PHG code with the letter C and a number indicating the nominal length in inches. For example, PHG C37 is a section C belt 37 inches long; PHG C40, 40 inches; and so on. Where a suffix such as X3 appears, as in PHG C100X3, it is a multi-rib belt with three ribs, which allows transmitting more power in the same width. Section C is one of the most robust among classic belts, suitable for medium and high loads.

These belts are used in a wide variety of industrial equipment in Argentina: compressors, centrifugal pumps, fans, mills, mixers, conveyor belts and machine tools, among others. They are common in food, textile and chemical plants and in the metalworking sector, where reliable, low-maintenance transmission is required. They are also found in agricultural equipment and pumping installations. Their classic profile makes them compatible with standard section C pulleys, which makes replacement in existing equipment easier.

To correctly select a PHG C belt, it is essential to verify the section and length required by the pulley. The section C must match the pulley groove; a belt of another section will not seat properly and will wear prematurely. The length is chosen according to the center distance and the pulley diameter. It is also important to check pulley alignment and proper tension: excessive tension overloads the bearings, while low tension causes slipping and heat. Lubrication does not apply to belts, but they should be kept free of oil and dirt. For multiple drives, all belts must be from the same batch and length.

As for equivalences, classic V-belts are identified by their section and length in inches, so different brands offer interchangeable products as long as these parameters match. When replacing, compare the full designation: section, length and number of ribs if it is multi-rib. Not all belts with the same length are equal in construction and performance, so it is advisable to verify the application. If in doubt, the code stamped on the original belt is the best reference for finding the equivalent.

To request a quote or ask about a PHG C belt, send the full code by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales. If you do not have it at hand, send the section, the length in inches and a photo of the pulley or the old belt. Our technical team helps you identify the right size and resolve any question about installation or replacement. With more than 80 years in the market, MR Accesorios Industriales supports you in selecting power transmission components.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the PHG code mean on an SKF belt?
PHG is the designation SKF uses for its line of classic V-belts. Together with the section letter (in this case C) and a number indicating the length in inches, it identifies the product. For example, PHG C40 is a section C belt 40 inches long.
How do I know what belt length I need?
The length is determined by measuring the old belt or calculating the center distance of the pulleys and their diameters. The number in the designation indicates the nominal length in inches. If in doubt, ask us with the machine data and we will help you choose.
Can I replace a belt from another brand with an SKF PHG C?
Yes, as long as the section (C), the length in inches and, if applicable, the number of ribs match. Classic belts are interchangeable between brands when they meet these dimensions. Check the code stamped on the original belt to ensure the equivalence.
