SKF PHC roller chains transmit motion between toothed shafts at a fixed ratio, making them a common choice for equipment that needs synchronization and reliable tensile performance. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and can help you match a chain to your specific pitch, strand count and terminal type.
The PHC code is structured so you can identify a chain without guesswork. After the C comes the pitch per ISO 606: PHC C08B-2C/L uses 08B, PHC C10B-1C/L uses 10B, and PHC C16B-1C/L uses 16B. The digit following the hyphen tells you the strand count—1 for single, 2 for double. The C/L suffix points to a chain supplied with terminals or a special joint, depending on how it is configured. Together, these elements give you an unambiguous identification.
You will find these chains in food processing, cement, mining, paper and material handling operations. They drive conveyors, elevators, mill equipment, mixers, compressors and machine tools. In continuous production plants, they often operate where dust, humidity or temperature swings are present. They also serve in pumping equipment and in transmission layouts where gear drives are not practical because of the center distance.
When selecting a roller chain, look at the power to be transmitted, the speed, the number of sprocket teeth and the center distance. During installation, align the sprockets in the same plane, set the correct tension and apply lubrication suited to the environment. Sealing helps when contaminants are a concern. Avoid over-tightening, which speeds up wear on bushings and rollers. Also inspect the sprockets: a worn sprocket will shorten the life of a new chain.
Roller chains are made to standards that allow interchangeability across brands. A chain marked 08B-1, 10B-1 or 16B-1 from one maker can be replaced by another with the same designation and standard, provided the pitch and strand count match. Suffixes for terminals are not uniform between brands, so confirm the pitch measurement and joint type before substituting. If the code is unclear, MR Industrial Accessories can help you interpret it.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the C/L suffix mean in an SKF PHC chain?
- The C/L suffix indicates a chain with terminals or a special joint, as defined in the manufacturer's designation. It does not affect the pitch or strand count, which appear before the hyphen. To confirm the exact terminal type, send the full code via WhatsApp.
- Can I replace a 10B-1 chain from another brand with an SKF PHC?
- Yes, if both meet ISO 606 and share the same pitch and strand count. The 10B-1 designation is interchangeable between manufacturers. Still, check the sprocket condition and joint type before making the change.
- What lubrication does an SKF PHC roller chain need?
- It depends on speed, load and environment. Generally, use oil or grease compatible with the chain type. In dusty or humid conditions, choose a lubricant that protects the pins and bushings. Ask us about the right lubricant for your equipment.
