For drives that require exact synchronization between shafts, SKF PHG T timing belts offer a dependable solution. Their toothed profile engages with matching pulleys to maintain a constant ratio without slipping. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line as part of its power transmission range and provides technical guidance to help you select the correct belt.
The part number tells you the key dimensions. In a reference like PHG T2.5-230-6, PHG identifies the SKF timing belt family, T indicates the trapezoidal tooth shape, and 2.5 is the pitch in millimeters. The following number, 230, is the pitch length in millimeters, and the final figure, 6, is the width in millimeters. Reading the code this way lets you confirm size at a glance.
These belts appear in textile machinery, packaging and labeling lines, industrial printers, dosing equipment, and pick-and-place robots. They also serve in pump, fan, and low-power compressor drives, as well as in laboratory devices and food-industry equipment where cleanliness and precision matter. Any mechanism needing reliable shaft synchronization is a candidate.
Selecting the right belt starts with matching pitch, length, and width to your application. Check that the pulleys share the same pitch and have the appropriate tooth count. During installation, align the pulleys and set tension following the manufacturer's recommendations; too much tension can harm bearings, while too little may cause tooth jumping. Keep shaft bearings properly lubricated and inspect the belt regularly for wear or cracks.
Interchangeability is possible with other brands that use the same profile and pitch, provided all dimensions correspond. Always verify compatibility with your existing pulleys and review the technical data. MR Industrial Accessories supplies SKF and can help you find a suitable option for your equipment.
