SKF power transmission products simplify supply chain

Bringing power transmission products under a single brand offers significant user benefits apart from the confidence that comes from using a well-known brand. SKF can provide a convenient single supply source for products and services with over 30,000 items in stock. This, in turn, means customers can benefit from simpler logistics and reduced administration.

Application expertise

As bearings and other power transmission components work together, many bearing problems and failures can be identified through the knowledge of power transmission systems and components in different industries. Examples of those industries are food and beverage, oil and gas, pulp and paper, textiles, metalworking, packaging, mining, mineral processing and cement, agriculture and material handling. Combining an understanding of bearing systems with power transmission gives SKF the opportunity to enhance the support available to users.

All SKF power transmission products are identified by an SKF-specific designation prefix. Apart from that, the designation follows international standards for easy recognition and cross-referencing. The SKF power transmission range covers most common types of products, which can be divided into six main categories:

• Belts
