KMC X9SL Ti-N 9-speed
The high-end chains from KMC. Extra-durable titanium nitride coating, hollow chain pins and milled outer links.
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 reduced weight, this design ensures exceptionally smooth running and fewer chain jams. The X-Bridge ensures smooth shifting in every direction. 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 significantly extending the chain’s service life. 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.
