SKF PHS sprockets are chain-drive sprockets designed to be mounted on shafts and to transmit motion between parallel shafts. They are used in gear reducers, conveyors, machine tools and process equipment where a reliable, repeatable transmission ratio is required. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as official brand product, with the technical support of a company recognized in bearings and power transmission.
The designation of these sprockets is read in blocks. In PHS 06B-1TB26, the prefix PHS identifies the SKF family of chain sprockets; 06B is the chain pitch according to the European ASA nomenclature; the 1 indicates single strand; TB indicates the hub type; and the final number, in this case 26, is the number of teeth. Thus, PHS 06B-1TB30 is a 06B pitch sprocket, single strand, with 30 teeth. Always check the pitch, the number of teeth and the hub type before ordering.
These sprockets appear in a wide variety of industrial applications in Argentina: packaging lines, belt and roller conveyors, mixers, blowers, process pumps and material handling equipment. They are also found in agricultural machinery and in maintenance workshops that replace worn components. As a wear part, replacing it with the same number of teeth and pitch is key so as not to alter the transmission ratio or the machine speed.
To select correctly, take into account the chain pitch, the number of teeth, the shaft diameter and the hub fastening type. Check the alignment between sprocket and chain: angular or parallel misalignment accelerates wear on teeth and chain. Proper lubrication and correct chain tension extend service life. If the equipment works with variable load or reversing rotation, it is advisable to check the service factor and the surface hardening of the tooth.
As for equivalents, ANSI roller chain sprockets are identified by pitch and number of teeth, and different brands offer interchangeable products under that same logic. A brand's part number alone is not enough to replace one with another: you have to compare pitch, number of teeth, hub diameter, bore and fastening system. If you have doubts, send us the complete part number and the shaft dimensions, and we will help you find the equivalent part within the SKF line that MR carries.
If you need to replace a sprocket, send the complete part number by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the final number in PHS 06B-1TB30 mean?
- The final number indicates the number of teeth on the sprocket. In that example, 30 teeth. Together with the driven sprocket, it is the data that defines the transmission ratio. Always verify this value before replacing a sprocket.
- How do I order the right sprocket for my machine?
- You need the chain pitch, the number of teeth, the bore diameter and the hub type. With the complete part number and those measurements, send them by WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will guide you on the option within the SKF line.
- Are SKF PHS sprockets interchangeable with other brands?
- ANSI roller chain sprockets are compared by pitch, number of teeth and hub dimensions. If those parameters match, they are usually interchangeable between brands. Do not rely on the part number alone: verify the measurements before mounting.
