The SKF PHS AL-CA sprocket is designed for chain drive systems where motion and torque must be transferred between shafts with a fixed ratio. It mounts directly on the shaft and engages the chain to deliver positive, synchronized power transmission in industrial equipment. MR supplies this SKF line to customers in the US, Canada, Mexico, and South America, and can help you confirm the correct part number for your application.
The part number structure tells you the key dimensions. In a code like PHS AL-CA555-Z8/ROD64, the prefix identifies the sprocket series, while the following digits and letters specify pitch, tooth count, and bore size. Because each variation changes the fit or mounting, always verify the complete code before ordering.
These sprockets are used in conveyors, elevators, packaging lines, and other machinery that runs on standard-pitch chain. Typical industries include food processing, cement, mining, and logistics. To select the right one, match the chain pitch, number of teeth, and shaft diameter. Also check the bore and keyway against your shaft, and consider the load and speed when evaluating material and surface treatment.
Proper installation and maintenance extend service life. Align the sprockets accurately and keep the chain lubricated. In dusty or wet environments, additional protection may be needed. If the sprocket is forced onto the shaft or the key does not seat correctly, wear accelerates and the drive can fail prematurely.
SKF sprockets in this series can often replace units from other manufacturers if the pitch, tooth count, pitch diameter, and mounting dimensions match. Do not rely on a similar part number alone—compare the critical dimensions. If you are unsure, send us the original reference and shaft measurements.
For a quote, provide the full SKF part number via WhatsApp or email, along with a photo or the shaft and chain dimensions. Our team will respond promptly and can suggest equivalents if needed.

Frequently asked questions
- What information do I need to order the correct SKF PHS AL-CA sprocket?
- The full part number from the sprocket or the machine manual is ideal. If that is not available, send the chain pitch, number of teeth, and shaft diameter. We can use those details to identify the right reference.
- Can this sprocket replace a part from another brand?
- Yes, if the pitch, number of teeth, pitch diameter, bore, and keyway match. Compatibility is not automatic, so verify these dimensions or consult us with your measurements.
- What should I check during installation?
- Confirm that the sprockets are aligned, the chain is in good condition and lubricated, and the sprocket fits the shaft without forcing. The key must seat properly. Misalignment or poor lubrication will shorten the life of the drive.
