Silca Wax Chip

Tune your hot wax for speed, endurance or a clean start

Silca's wax chips drop into Secret Chain Blend hot melt wax to tune it for the riding you do. Pick SpeedChip for the fastest possible chain, EnduranceChip for the longest time between waxings, or StripChip to prep a new chain without degreasing.

SpeedChip

SpeedChip is the go-to when you need the absolute fastest option available. It is the choice of Visma Lease-a-Bike for time trials and one-day classics. SpeedChip is a full synthetic wax produced from the same exotic base oils used in SILCA Synergetic. It is the fastest wax ever used in a cycling lubricant, blended with 3 sizes of sub-micron and nanoscale tungsten disulfide platelets for further reduced friction and anti-wear properties. Proven in testing to increase chain efficiency by up to 0.6% over Secret Chain Blend hot melt, with the only downside being more frequent lubrication intervals.

EnduranceChip

EnduranceChip is the best option for ultra-endurance events or training chains to get the most longevity out of your components. It is a semi-synthetic wax blend boasting some of the longest molecular chain lengths possible in a wax for ultimate durability. Adding EnduranceChip to Secret Chain Blend can increase the distance between re-waxing by as much as 2.5X (up to 750km) while still being as fast as the top wet lubricants and significantly faster than any dry lubricant. Add a second chip for even further single-application longevity.

StripChip

StripChip eliminates the need for degreasing new factory chains. Each piece binds with the factory grease found in new chains, turning it into wax, so it's straight into the hot wax for simple chain preparation.

StripChip comes in a candy-bar form, with each bar containing six pieces (12 grams each). One piece per chain eliminates factory grease, allowing the hot melt wax to penetrate the chain pins and rollers. It works best with Silca Secret Chain Blend hot melt wax for the fastest and longest-wearing drivetrain.
