For power transmission in industrial machinery, the SKF PHC O/L-XP roller chain delivers dependable operation. Its design supports smooth running across many applications. Built to high quality standards, it resists wear and performs reliably in demanding settings.
The PHC prefix marks the SKF roller chain family. The following number—35, 40, 50, or 60—specifies the ANSI pitch; a larger number corresponds to a greater pitch and load capacity. A suffix of -1 or -2 denotes single or double strand. The O/L code covers lubrication and treatment: O for oil, L for long life. XP indicates a high-performance build with plates and pins optimized for fatigue and wear resistance. For instance, PHC 40-1O/L-XP is a chain with pitch 40, single strand, long-life lubrication, and high performance.
These chains appear in food processing, cement, mining, agricultural, and material handling operations. They drive conveyors, elevators, machine tools, bottling lines, and general transmission systems. Their capacity to handle high loads at moderate speeds suits dusty, dirty, or continuously running environments.
Selecting a PHC O/L-XP chain starts with the required pitch, based on sprocket and speed. Confirm the number of strands—single or double—according to the load. Install with precise sprocket alignment and proper tension to prevent early wear. Lubrication matters: chains arrive pre-lubricated, yet the recommended lubrication schedule should be maintained. Check elongation and roller wear at regular intervals.
For equivalences, SKF PHC chains follow ANSI standards, so they can replace chains from other makers that meet the same standard and pitch. Still, verify critical dimensions and load capacity, since materials and heat treatments may differ. Our technical team can help confirm compatibility.

Frequently asked questions
- What do the O/L and XP suffixes mean on an SKF PHC chain?
- O/L stands for long-life lubrication, and XP indicates a high-performance construction with plates and pins optimized for greater resistance. These features extend service life in demanding applications.
- How do I decide between a single and a double strand chain?
- The decision depends on the load to be transmitted and the available space. Double strand chains handle higher loads but need wider sprockets. Check your equipment specifications.
- Can SKF PHC chains be interchanged with other brands?
- Yes, provided they comply with ANSI standard and the same pitch. However, verify dimensions and capacities, as they may vary between manufacturers. We can advise you for a correct selection.
