Silca introduces new chain lube

Published November 21, 2014

INDIANAPOLIS (BRAIN) — Silca is now selling a new chain lube, which company president Joshua Poertner says was inspired by a "secret lube" being used by pro race mechanics.

The new lube, called NFS ProBlend, is made by NFS in Maryland for Silca.

"We knew it was good, but in testing we found it to be in the top 10 percent of all lubes tested for friction, and in the top 10 percent for longevity/durability and typically we see no overlap between those groups," said Poertner.

The lube retails for $16 for a 2-ounce bottle. Silca recommends using just a few drops on a chain, so the company said the 2-ounce bottle will last as long as 8 to 10 ounces of other lubes.
