SKF drive pulleys from the PHP line transmit motion through V-section belts in industrial drives. They let you set the speed and torque ratio between the motor and the driven machine, and they run with low maintenance and good vibration absorption. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to maintenance teams and project engineers across the United States and Latin America.
The part code tells you most of what you need. In PHP 4-5V440-SD, the first figure is the number of grooves (4), 5V is the belt profile, 440 is the pitch diameter in tenths of an inch, so 44.0 inches, and SD is the taper bushing mount. A variant such as PHP 5-5V465-SD changes the groove count and the diameter. Reading the code this way speeds up selection and reduces ordering errors.
These pulleys and the matching belts appear in food, textile, wood, cement and mining plants, and in industrial fans, centrifugal pumps, compressors, conveyors and machine tools. They suit drives with variable loads that still need constant speed.
When you select a V-belt pulley, confirm the belt profile (A, B, C, 3V, 5V, 8V and others), the number of grooves, the pitch diameter and the bushing type. During installation, align the pulleys accurately to avoid premature wear on belts and bearings. Bushing lubrication and tightening torque matter, and belts should be checked regularly and replaced once they show wear or glazing.
For interchangeability, SKF pulleys can replace other brands that use the same profile and taper bushing standards. Check the critical dimensions: pitch diameter, face width, number of grooves and bushing type. Taper bushings are often interchangeable between manufacturers following standards such as ISO or DIN, so always review the technical specifications before confirming compatibility.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the SD suffix mean on an SKF pulley?
- SD indicates a taper bushing mount. This bushing type simplifies installation and removal and gives a firm fit on the shaft. Match the bushing to the shaft diameter.
- How do I choose the number of grooves on a pulley?
- The groove count follows the power to be transmitted and the number of belts in the drive. More power generally means more grooves. Use the selection tables or ask us for advice on the best configuration.
- Are SKF pulleys compatible with belts from other brands?
- Yes, provided the belts meet the standardized profile, for example 5V, and the correct dimensions. Compatibility depends on the profile standard, not the brand, so verify the specifications.
