Versatile tools for pulley and sprocket alignment

The SKF TKBA 10 and TKBA 20 allow pulleys and sprockets to be aligned on the side face. The unit magnetically attaches to the inside or outside face of almost any belt pulley or chain sprocket and has no small parts or targets that can get lost. A laser line is projected from the transmitter unit to the reflector unit mounted on the opposite pulley. A reference line on the reflector unit directly indicates the offset and vertical angle misalignment. The reflected laser line shown on the transmitter unit shows the horizontal angle misalignment of all three.

Features and benefits

  • Powerful magnets allow fast and easy attachment
  • Facilitates simultaneous adjustment of tension and alignment
  • Can be used on almost all machines using V belts, banded belts, ribbed belts and most other belts as well as chain sprockets
  • SKF TKBA 10 utilises a red laser and can be used for distances up to 3 m (10 ft)
  • SKF TKBA 20 utilises a highly visible green laser and can be used for distances up to 6 m (20 ft). It can even be used outdoors in sunny conditions
  • Sturdy aluminium housings help ensure assembly stability and accuracy during the alignment process

Belt alignment tool TKBA 40

Highly accurate tool for V-belt pulley alignment


The SKF TKBA 40 aligns V-belt pulleys in the grooves. V–guides and powerful magnets allow the TKBA 40 to be fitted in the grooves of the pulley. With only two components, a laser–emitting unit and a receiver unit, the belt alignment tool is easy and fast to attach. The three–dimensional target area on the receiver unit allows the easy detection of misalignment as well as its nature; whether it is horizontal, vertical, parallel or a combination of all three.

Features and benefits

  • Powerful magnets allow fast and easy attachment
  • Three-dimensional target area simplifies the alignment process
  • Facilitates simultaneous adjustment of tension and alignment
  • V-guides facilitate the alignment of a wide range of V-belt pulleys
  • Aligns grooves of a V-belt pulley rather than its face, allowing optimum alignment of pulleys of unequal width or with dissimilar faces
  • A maximum operating distance of 6 m (20 ft) accommodates many applications
  • Special side adaptor allowing alignment of multi-ribbed and timing belt pulleys as well as sprockets is available as accessory
