This SKF PHC Series H roller chain features a hollow pin and straight plates, with an AG anti-corrosion surface treatment. It follows the ISO 606 metric pitch standard and is designed to link parallel shafts in industrial machinery. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this chain and offers technical guidance to help you choose the correct pitch and configuration.
The code starts with PHC, which designates SKF's roller chain family. The number that follows, such as in PHC 50H-1O/L-AG, corresponds to the pitch per ISO 606: 50 for 5/8", 60 for 3/4", 80 for 1", 100 for 1 1/4", 120 for 1 1/2", and 140 for 1 3/4". The H means a single-pitch chain with a hollow pin. The suffix 1O/L denotes one strand and straight plates (O) with hollow pin (L), while AG indicates the anti-corrosion treatment. This design allows assembly and disassembly with connecting pins instead of riveting.
Typical applications include power transmission in food processing, cement, mining, paper, and material handling operations. You will find these chains on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mill drives, mixers, and packaging equipment. The hollow pin construction enables quick joining with connecting pins, which simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime in plants that run continuously.
When selecting a PHC chain, consider the power to be transmitted, the speed of the fast shaft, the number of sprocket teeth, and the center distance. Confirm that the pitch matches your existing sprockets. During installation, check shaft alignment and tension carefully: an overly tight chain speeds up wear on rollers and bushings, while a loose one may jump. Lubricate regularly with a lubricant suited to the speed and load.
SKF PHC chains are interchangeable with other ISO 606 chains, including equivalent ANSI series. For replacement, compare pitch, number of strands, and pin type. Avoid mixing chains from different manufacturers in the same drive, as tolerance differences can affect performance. If you need a chain with special characteristics, contact us for guidance on the best option within the SKF line.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the O/L suffix mean on an SKF PHC chain?
- The O stands for straight plates and the L for hollow pin. This allows the chain to be joined and separated with connecting pins instead of riveting, which simplifies assembly and maintenance in the field.
- Is this chain compatible with sprockets from other brands?
- Yes, as long as the sprockets meet ISO 606 and have the same pitch. Check the number of teeth and the pitch diameter to ensure proper engagement.
- How should I lubricate an SKF PHC roller chain?
- Use a lubricant recommended for chains, applied regularly to the rollers and pins. The frequency depends on speed and environmental conditions. Avoid excess that attracts dirt.
