3M Chain Lube (75 g)

Advance Information*

Overview

The 3M Chain Lube (75 g) is an essential product for anyone serious about motorcycle maintenance. It's a comprehensive solution tailored for the optimal performance and longevity of your motorcycle's chain. This product from 3M is formulated to provide superior internal and external lubrication, especially crucial for motorcycles and other machinery like forklifts that operate in demanding and dusty environments.

Key Features

Comprehensive Lubrication

The 3M Chain Lube offers thorough internal and external lubrication for roller chains. This is vital not just for motorcycles but also for other equipment like forklifts, which often operate under harsh conditions where dust and grime can accumulate.

Enhanced Water Repellency

One of the standout features of the 3M Chain Lube is its excellent water-repellent properties. This makes it highly effective for chains that operate in environments exposed to water, sea spray, or steam. By repelling water, the lube ensures that the chain remains well-lubricated and protected against moisture-related wear and tear.

Robust Protection

Beyond lubrication, this product is also about protection. The 3M Chain Lube conditions and protects rubber O-rings found in heavy-duty chains. These O-rings are critical for the proper functioning and longevity of your chain, and by conditioning them, the lube ensures they remain flexible and effective.

Deep Penetration

The formula is designed for superb penetration into the chain's linkages and roller parts. This deep penetration ensures that every part of the chain receives adequate lubrication, reducing friction and wear and thus prolonging the lifespan of the chain.

Corrosion Resistance

The 3M Chain Lube also offers robust protection against rust and corrosion. This is particularly important for chains that are exposed to the elements or used in humid conditions, where the risk of rust is higher.

Dirt Resistance

Unlike some lubricants that can attract dirt and grime, the 3M Chain Lube is formulated to keep your chain clean. This dirt resistance ensures that your chain remains clean and well-lubricated, even in dusty conditions.

Applications

The versatility of the 3M Chain Lube is one of its biggest advantages. Here are some of its primary applications:

• Motorcycles: Optimal for both on-road and off-road motorcycles, ensuring smooth and trouble-free rides.
• Forklifts: Suitable for industrial environments where forklifts operate, providing optimal chain performance even in dusty and dirty conditions.
• Marine Equipment: Excellent for chains that are exposed to water or sea spray due to its water-repellent properties.
• Agricultural Machinery: Effective for chains used in agricultural equipment, which often operates in dirty and dusty environments.
• Heavy-Duty Chains: Ideal for heavy-duty chains with rubber O-rings, ensuring they remain conditioned and effective.

Benefits

Prolongs Chain Life

Regular use of 3M Chain Lube can significantly extend the life of your motorcycle chain and other machinery chains. By providing continuous lubrication and protection against wear and tear, the lube ensures that your chains last longer and perform better.

Reduces Friction

The deep-penetrating formula of the 3M Chain Lube ensures that every part of the chain is well-lubricated. This reduces friction between the chain's components, leading to smoother operation and reduced wear.

Maintains Performance

By keeping the chain clean and well-lubricated, 3M Chain Lube helps maintain the optimal performance of your motorcycle or machinery. This means smoother rides, better fuel efficiency, and lower maintenance costs over time.

Protects Against Elements

The water-repellent and corrosion-resistant properties of the 3M Chain Lube protect your chain against the elements. Whether you're riding in rain, sea spray, or dusty conditions, this lube ensures that your chain remains protected and performs optimally.

Usage Instructions

1. Preparation: Ensure the chain is clean before applying the lubricant. This can be done using a chain cleaner to remove any existing dirt and grime.
2. Application: Shake the can well before use. Hold the can 6-8 inches away from the chain and apply the lube evenly across the entire chain while rotating the wheel to ensure full coverage of all links.
3. Drying: Allow the lubricant to penetrate the chain for a few minutes before wiping off any excess with a clean cloth. This ensures that the lube penetrates deeply into the linkages and roller parts, providing optimal protection and lubrication.
4. Maintenance: Regular application is recommended, especially after riding in wet or dusty conditions, to ensure continuous
