For mounting pulleys, gears, sprockets, and similar components onto cylindrical shafts, the SKF PHF TB taper bushing provides a secure, centered connection. Its tapered design compresses against the hub when the screws are tightened, creating a firm fit. This simplifies both installation and removal, and it eliminates the need for special shaft machining.
The PHF TB code from SKF refers to taper bushings that use screws for fastening. The number after the letters indicates the bushing size: larger numbers correspond to greater outer diameter and capacity. The suffix following the X gives the shaft diameter in millimeters, as seen in PHF TB1008X9MM or PHF TB1008X16MM. So the full part number tells you both the bushing size and the shaft diameter it fits.
You will find these bushings in food processing, mining, cement, and aggregate operations, as well as in conveyors, mixers, fans, and pumps. They are common in production lines where pulleys or gears are changed often. Since no keyway is needed on the shaft, replacement is quicker and downtime is reduced.
To choose the right bushing, check that the shaft diameter matches the suffix in the part number and that the bushing size fits the hub of the component you are mounting. When installing, clean the tapered surfaces, tighten the screws gradually to the specified torque, and check pulley alignment. Lubricating the threads and using lock washers helps prevent loosening.
SKF taper bushings can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same dimensional standard. For replacement, compare the complete part number: both the size number and the shaft diameter must match. MR Industrial Accessories supplies SKF and can help you select the correct component.
Before requesting a quote, have the part number stamped on the bushing or the shaft and hub measurements ready. With that information, we will provide a proposal suited to your needs. Contact us via WhatsApp or email and we will reply promptly.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I identify the taper bushing I need?
- You need two details: the shaft diameter (the mm suffix in the part number) and the bushing size (the number, such as 1008). Make sure the hub of the pulley or gear is compatible with that size. If unsure, send us the measurements and we will assist.
- Can SKF bushings be used with other brands?
- Yes, taper bushings that follow the dimensional standard are interchangeable between brands. However, always compare the complete part number: the size number and shaft diameter must match for proper mounting. If in doubt, ask us.
- What torque should I apply to the screws?
- The torque depends on the bushing size and is typically listed in the manufacturer's catalog or technical documentation. Apply it gradually and in a cross pattern for even seating. If you do not have the figure, contact us and we will provide it.
