A motorcycle chain deserves regular attention and care. This dry chain spray is best applied after long rides in the rain or after you've washed your motorcycle. Or apply every 600 kilometres, depending on which comes first. This innovative hybrid formula combines the advantages of both greasy lubrication and dry lubrication. In concrete terms, this means: dry, non-sticky lubrication that does not attract or hold dirt, making this spray ideal for off-road usage.
Dry lube offers optimal protection against wear and corrosion thanks to its flexible but non-sticky protective layer. Your chain will keep its colour, while water and dirt have less chance to damage the chain. Suitable for all O/X/Z-ring chains.
Use:
Clean the chain first. Shake the can well before use. Apply a
thin layer of chain spray along the inside of the chain, preferably on a warm,
dry chain, like after a ride. Let it adhere for approx. 30 minutes or overnight
if possible.
Tips:
- Clean the chain regularly with S100 chain cleaner.
- The S100 Chain Spray splash guard (Sauber
Sepp)
is a handy tool that prevents chain spray from getting onto your rim, swingarm,
rear tyre and
frame when applying the chain spray.
- Lubricating a motorcycle chain is best
done when the chain is warm, like after a ride, because the chain spray then
adheres better.
- Always lubricate your chain on the inside of the links.
Applying chain spray on the outside of your chain has little use, because that
way the links are not lubricated. Moreover, centrifugal forces drive the chain
grease outwards. If you lubricate on the inside, the grease stays longer on the
chain.
Safe:
It seems logical that any spray should be used with caution.
Yet, we mention it again. Use Dry lube in a ventilated environment. Always store
it at room temperature. It is an obvious statement that open flames, smoking
materials and heat sources are not a good combination with pressurised
spray cans. Children are better off playing with other toys, and eyes or mouths
have no need for chain spray. Carefully follow the instructions on the aerosol
can.
