SKF PHS TB sprockets are chain drive components that mount on shafts and engage ANSI pitch chains. They transmit torque positively and synchronously in gearboxes, conveyors, machine tools and process equipment. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line as part of its power transmission offering. To replace a sprocket or build a new drive, send the part number via WhatsApp or email and the team will quote it.

The PHS TB code breaks down into several parts. PHS denotes the SKF family of chain sprockets. The first number, as in PHS 35-1TB18, gives the chain pitch per ANSI: 35 means a pitch of 3/8 inch. The 1 indicates single strand, not double or triple. TB identifies the hub or finish variant, and the final number is the tooth count: 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 or 25 in this series. As teeth increase, peripheral speed rises and allowable torque for the same pitch decreases.

These sprockets appear in belt and roller conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, bagging machines and packaging lines. They also drive woodworking, food and plastics machinery, where the chain provides positive synchronization and handles dusty or dirty conditions. As a wear part, replacing with the same pitch and tooth count is essential to avoid overstressing the chain or shaft bearings.

For correct selection, confirm chain pitch, number of teeth, shaft diameter and hub type. Check that the bore and keyway match the shaft, and that sprocket and chain alignment is true: angular or radial misalignment speeds wear on teeth and bushings. Proper lubrication — oil or grease depending on speed and load — and correct chain tension extend assembly life. If the sprocket mounts with a taper bushing or set screw, respect the tightening torque and check axial play before startup.

SKF PHS TB sprockets follow ANSI standardized dimensions for pitch and tooth count, so they can replace other manufacturers using the same standard. Before switching brands, compare outer diameter, hub diameter, bore and keyway position, as these vary between lines. If you have the old part number or a sample, send the data and we will help you find the equivalent within what we supply.

MR Industrial Accessories LLC offers the SKF PHS TB sprocket line alongside chains, pulleys, housings and bearings to assemble or repair complete drives. For a quote on a sprocket for your equipment, send the part number via WhatsApp — for example PHS 35-1TB20 — or a photo of the part and shaft data. The team replies promptly and can suggest equivalents and help you choose.
