SKF timing belts from the PHG line are power transmission elements that combine the flexibility of a belt with the precision of a gear. They are used to synchronize movements and transmit torque without slippage in applications where positioning accuracy is critical. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line, backed in the industrial sector.

The designation of a PHG belt reads as follows: PHG identifies the SKF timing belt family; the profile code (for example, S2M) indicates the profile and pitch; the middle number is the pitch length in millimeters; and the suffix S followed by a number defines the belt width in tenths of a millimeter. This nomenclature lets you quickly identify the belt you need without relying on external tables.

These belts are used in industries such as food, pharmaceutical, textile and automation, where synchronism between shafts is required. They also appear in 3D printers, cutting machines, packaging equipment and positioning systems. In Argentina, they are common in the printing industry and in assembly lines that need repeatability. The profile of each belt makes it suitable for low-power, high-speed drives with small-diameter pulleys.

To select correctly, verify that the belt pitch matches that of the pulley and that the width is compatible with the groove. The pitch length must match the center distance to allow proper tension. During installation, avoid forcing the belt onto the pulleys: loosen the tensioners and slide it on laterally. Pulley alignment is key to avoid premature wear and noise. It does not require lubrication and should be kept free of oils and contaminants.

As for equivalences, timing belts are identified by profile and pitch, so a belt of the same profile from another brand with the same length and width may be interchangeable, as long as tolerances are respected. However, not all brands use the same nomenclature. We recommend verifying the pitch and width before replacing. At MR Accesorios Industriales we can advise you to find the right equivalent.

If you already have the code of the belt you need, send it via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will quote you. We can also help you identify the belt if you only have the pulley or the measurements. We work with the SKF line and other alternatives so you can find the right solution for your equipment.
