SKF PHE FRC FTB couplings are power transmission components that link shafts while accommodating misalignment. They transmit torque and help protect driven equipment in industrial settings. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers across the United States and Latin America.
The part number breaks down into three parts. PHE places the item in the SKF power transmission range. FRC identifies the coupling type: a jaw coupling with an elastomeric insert. FTB denotes a construction variant within the series. The trailing digits, as seen in PHE FRC70FTB, PHE FRC90FTB and PHE FRC110FTB, set the coupling size and correspond to torque capacity and maximum shaft diameter. A larger number means greater transmission capacity.
Typical installations include centrifugal pumps, fans, compressors, conveyor belts, mixers and machine tools. The jaw design with elastomeric element compensates for angular, radial and axial misalignment, dampens vibration and absorbs torque peaks. This supports longer equipment service life and less maintenance. Industries such as food, chemical, petrochemical, cement, mining and water treatment rely on these couplings.
When selecting a coupling, review the drive's nominal and maximum torque, rotation speed, shaft diameters, load type and environmental conditions. The elastomeric element is available in different hardnesses: higher hardness yields greater torque capacity but less damping. Always check shaft alignment before startup and choose an insert suited to the environment, considering temperature and exposure to oils or chemicals.
For interchangeability, SKF PHE FRC FTB couplings are compatible with other brands that use the same jaw standard and dimensions. Verify critical dimensions such as outer diameter, length, bore diameter and keyway type. To replace an existing coupling, compare actual measurements or consult our technical team. Tolerances can vary between brands, so case-by-case verification prevents mounting issues.

Frequently asked questions
- What does FTB mean in SKF PHE FRC couplings?
- FTB indicates a construction variant within the PHE FRC series. It generally refers to a specific hub or elastomeric element configuration. For exact details, consult us with the full part number.
- How do I choose the correct PHE FRC FTB coupling size?
- Consider the nominal and maximum torque, rotation speed, shaft diameters and load type. The number in the designation (e.g., 70, 90, 110) indicates capacity. Our technical team can assist with selection.
- Are SKF PHE FRC FTB couplings interchangeable with other brands?
- They may be compatible with other brands following the same dimensional standard, but verify diameters, lengths and keyways. Do not assume direct interchangeability; consult us with your current coupling measurements.
