SKF sprockets from the PHS …A…SS line are stainless steel sprockets for roller chains, designed to transmit motion in corrosive environments or where hygiene is required. They are used in machines that demand durability and low contamination, such as food processing, chemical or surface treatment equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as part of its power transmission offering, with more than 80 years of experience in the field.

The designation PHS …A…SS reads as follows: PHS identifies the category of SKF sprockets for roller chains; the first number after the hyphen indicates the chain pitch (for example, 35 or 40); 1A indicates a single-strand sprocket, one row only; the next number is the number of teeth; and SS confirms the material is stainless steel. Thus, a PHS 40-1A30SS is a single-strand sprocket, pitch 40, 30 teeth, stainless steel. Examples in the series include sizes such as PHS 35-1A40SS, PHS 40-1A26SS and PHS 40-1A40SS, among others.

These sprockets are used in industries where corrosion or intensive cleaning is part of daily operations: food, beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical and water treatment. Also in packaging equipment, conveyors, mixers and machines that operate outdoors or undergo frequent washdowns. In Argentina, they are found in plants that need parts resistant to moisture and chemical agents, where a carbon steel sprocket would degrade quickly.

To select the correct sprocket, consider the chain pitch, the number of teeth and the shaft diameter. Verify that the bore and keyway match the shaft, and that the stainless material is compatible with the environment. During assembly, ensure precise alignment between sprocket and chain to avoid uneven wear; lubricate according to load and speed, and check tension. If the equipment is subject to washdowns, choose lubricants suitable for indirect food contact.

SKF PHS …A…SS sprockets can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same pitch and tooth count standard, provided the bore and hub dimensions match. Not all brands offer the stainless version, so it is advisable to verify the material and tolerance before replacing. Interchangeability depends on pitch, number of teeth and chain type; if in doubt, compare drawings or consult a specialist.
