SKF PHC series roller chains are power transmission components that connect sprockets and transfer motion efficiently. They appear in many industrial machines, from conveyors to production equipment. Their construction and precision suit applications that demand reliability and durability. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to meet transmission needs.
The code on an SKF PHC chain tells you three things. The number after PHC is the pitch in eighths of an inch; for instance, 15 means a pitch of 15/8 inches. A hyphen and a digit follow to indicate strand count: 1 for single, 2 for double, 3 for triple. The suffix X10FT shows the chain comes in a 10-foot length. So PHC 25-1X10FT is a chain with a 25/8-inch pitch, one strand, and 10 feet long.
These chains are found in food processing, cement, mining, automotive, and material handling operations. Typical equipment includes roller conveyors, elevators, machine tools, packaging lines, and general transmission systems. They handle moderate loads and speeds, which makes them adaptable to many demanding industrial settings.
When selecting a PHC chain, match the pitch to your sprockets, choose the number of strands based on the load to be transmitted, and confirm the needed length. Check sprocket alignment and keep proper lubrication to extend service life. Mount with the correct tension—too much tension overloads bearings. Also consider the working environment when deciding on sealing or coating.
SKF PHC roller chains can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same dimensional standards, such as ANSI chains. Still, verify technical specifications and material quality, as strength and durability can differ. For replacement, make sure the pitch and number of strands match the original system for optimal operation.

Frequently asked questions
- What does X10FT mean in the chain designation?
- X10FT means the chain is supplied in a 10-foot length. This is a standard length for these chains, but it can vary by manufacturer. Always check the length your application requires.
- How do I determine the number of strands I need?
- The number of strands depends on the load to be transmitted and the available space. Single strand chains are used for moderate loads, while double or triple strand chains handle higher loads. Consult your equipment specifications or ask us for advice.
- Are SKF PHC chains compatible with sprockets from other brands?
- Yes, as long as the sprockets meet the dimensional standards for the chain pitch. It is essential to verify the pitch and number of strands to ensure correct coupling. If you have doubts, send us your sprocket details and we will advise you.
