KMC GO WAX – cleaner, faster, longer-lasting

• LONG-LASTING EFFECT: After application, the wax dries and forms a protective barrier that outperforms oil-based products.
• CLEAN SOLUTION: Less dirt sticks to our waxed chains, minimising the number one cause of wear.
• MAINTENANCE MADE EASY: Thanks to reduced dirt adhesion, your drivetrain doesn’t need cleaning as often. Reapplying the wax is very simple – no need to strip the wax off. Clean the chain with a dry brush or a dry cloth, then apply KMC GO WAX, and you’re done.
• ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: KMC GO WAX is biodegradable and free from PFAS and harsh solvents.

KMC DLC11 derailleur chain, pre-waxed

KMC chains feature a very slim design, known as ‘lean construction’. In addition to being lighter in weight, this design offers exceptionally smooth running and fewer instances of the chain jamming. The Double X-Durability treatment is 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 and significantly extends the chain’s service life. They are extremely lightweight, highly durable and very easy to fit with the MissingLink 11.

KMC’s DLC-series chains (Diamond Like Coating) with titanium carbon nitride coating have an extremely hard surface and therefore reduced friction. The result: smooth running, optimal shifting performance and, due to the extreme hardness of the pins, an above-average service life for the entire drivetrain.

The chain locks, or Missing Links, on the 11-speed chains allow for simple and secure installation. A standard chain tool is required to shorten the KMC chains to the correct length. The new 11-speed Missing Links are reusable.
