KMC X10 SL 10 Hollowpin Chain

KMC’s high-end chains for road bikes impress with their exceptionally quiet operation and maximum durability. The KMC X10SL - TI - NI chains are characterised by their extra-durable titanium nitride coating, hollow chain pins and milled outer plates. Easy installation and cleaning with the missing link fastener included in the delivery. Excellent shifting performance and smooth running thanks to X-Bridge outer links. Compared to other well-known brands, X10 KMC chains have a significantly longer service life

In a complex process, the plates of the X-SL chains are milled out and riveted with hollow pins. This achieves a significant weight saving without compromising stability or service life. KMC chains feature a very slim design, known as ‘lean construction’. In addition to being lighter, this design ensures exceptionally smooth running and fewer instances of the chain jamming. At just 6 mm wide, the 10-speed chains are among the narrowest in their class and are forgiving even if the rear derailleur is no longer adjusted 100 per cent precisely. X-SP stands for ‘extra stretch proof’, a process in which all parts of the chain are specially hardened. This treatment makes the pins, in particular, highly resistant to dust and sand, thereby extending the service life enormously.

KMC titanium nitride coating:

The titanium nitride coating not only gives the chain a premium look: TiN is one of the hardest surface treatments in the industrial sector. The surface is extremely low-friction and very easy to maintain. This makes these chains the recommended choice for extremely durable and efficient drivetrains

KMX 10-speed chain compatibility:

KMC X10 chains perform excellently on Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo 10-speed systems. They are extremely lightweight, incredibly durable and very easy to fit with the MissingLink.

KMC Missing Link:

The chain connectors, or Missing Links, for 10-speed chains enable simple and secure installation. A standard chain tool is required to shorten the KMC chains to the correct length. The 10-speed Missing Links cannot be reused a second time.
