Silca Secret Chain Blend Optimisation
Silca Secret Chain Blend Optimisation is a complete hot wax bicycle chain optimisation programme that combines ultrasonic technology and a hot wax tank to treat your chain for riders who prefer a waxed chain over a traditional wet lube. The process follows the same rigorous ultrasonic cleaning stages as our wet lubrication options, ensuring your chain is meticulously clean before the hot wax is applied for lasting performance and protection.
The ultrasonic cleaning process removes all dirt, grime and old lubricant. Silca Secret Chain Blend Wax is gently heated to a precise temperature in the hot wax tank, allowing the wax to penetrate every contact point in the chain links. After the wax is applied, the chain is cooled, hung to set, and left ready for use.
Silca Secret Chain Blend Hot Wax is made from highly refined paraffin combined with a high concentration of three sizes of nano-scale tungsten disulfide particles. These particles lubricate and modify the metal surface of the chain by filling crevices with wear-resistant, highly lubricious material. Chains treated with Secret Chain Blend and maintained with Silca Secret Chain Lube can become faster over time and significantly extend the life of the chain and drivetrain components, in some cases by up to ten times.
When booking your optimisation, you can choose your preferred wax recipe to suit your riding style, whether prioritising speed, durability, or balanced performance. For ongoing maintenance, Silca Super Secret Coating is available as a clean, balanced wax-based lube that complements the hot wax treatment. The full process takes around 24 hours and is available for both new and existing chains.
