Introducing Enduro E Wax infused with graphene – a cutting-edge hot dip wax solution that offers a multitude of compelling advantages:

• Experience the epitome of drivetrain cleanliness and ease of maintenance with a chain treated using our hot dip wax.

• Unleash a potential gain of up to four watts, translating to a significant reduction in friction.

• Achieve unparalleled chain penetration as our hot dip wax thoroughly infiltrates every link, a feat that many drip lubricants struggle to accomplish.

• Elevate the longevity of your entire drive chain, resulting in substantial cost savings over time.

• Embrace superior efficiency that surpasses the performance of most drip lubricants.

• Benefit from the exceptional lubricating properties of graphene, which acts as a remarkable super lubricant.

• Leverage the remarkable attributes of graphene, which not only diminishes friction in steel by a factor of seven but also mitigates wear-and-tear by an astonishing factor of 10,000.

• Capitalize on the microscopic size range of graphene particles, spanning 30–200 nanometers (equivalent to 1 millimeter out of 1 million nanometers), to effortlessly infiltrate and optimize the moving components of your chain.

• Harness the innate water-repelling qualities of graphene, bolstering your chain’s resilience against corrosion when exposed to moisture.

• Discover the cost-effectiveness of Enduro Wax, offering exceptional value for the performance enhancement it provides.

Steps for Cleaning Your Chain Before Dipping It in Hot Wax:

• If you’re using a completely new chain, make sure to cut it to the appropriate length, which should match the length of the old chain you’re replacing.
• Place the chain inside a clean container equipped with a sealing lid.
• Fill the container with either petrol or mineral spirits until the chain is completely submerged.
• Stir the contents of the container for a few minutes, then allow it to sit overnight.
• Remove the chain from the container.
• Utilize a clean cloth to wipe down the chain thoroughly.
• Transfer the used cleaning solvent to a second container for recycling purposes.
• Clean the interior of the initial container and repeat the cleaning process.
• Once again, take out the chain from the container.
• Wipe down the chain with a fresh cloth and transfer the spent solvent to the recycling container.
• If an ultrasonic cleaner is accessible, cleanse the chain for a minimum of 30 minutes using Methylated Spirits (Denatured Alcohol).
• If an ultrasonic cleaner is unavailable, place the chain in a clean container. Proceed to thoroughly cleanse it by periodically shaking the container for about 30 minutes in Methylated Spirits (Denatured Alcohol).
• If needed, repeat the denatured alcohol bath until the chain is completely clean.
• Vigorously wipe the chain with a cloth after removing it from the cleaning solution.
• Allow the chain to thoroughly dry before proceeding to the waxing stage; it must be completely dry before immersion in hot wax.
• Ensure that your cassette, chainrings, and derailleur pulleys are also clean before installing the newly cleaned chain.

Following these steps will result in a thoroughly cleaned chain, ready for the hot wax dipping process.

Preparing and Hot-Dipping a Bicycle Chain in Enduro E Wax

Hot dipping a bicycle chain in wax can enhance lubrication and protection. Follow these steps using a double pot setup for safety and effective results:

Materials:

• Utilize Enduro E Wax.
• Use a crockpot / slow cooker or a double pot setup: Place a smaller pot containing wax within a larger pot filled with water. This prevents direct heat contact and reduces the risk of overheating or fire.
• Heat the setup using a stove, hot plate, or similar heat source.
• Optional: Wear gloves, goggles, and ensure proper ventilation for safety.

Prepare the Wax:

• Place Enduro E Wax into the smaller pot.
• Gradually heat the wax over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally with a metal rod.

Monitor the Temperature:

• Use a thermometer to monitor the wax temperature.
• Maintain the wax temperature between 65°C to 75°C for optimal results.

Dip the Chain:

• Attach the chain and chain links to a length of wire for easy handling.
• Submerge the chain completely in the melted wax for a few minutes.
• Agitate the chain to release any bubbles in the rollers and links, ensuring thorough coating.

Remove Excess Wax:

• Lift the chain out of the wax and let excess wax drip off by holding it above the pot.
• Once cooled and solidified, remove any extra wax by passing the chain through your hands.

Install and Break In:

• Install the wax-coated chain back onto your bicycle.
• Ride up to 50km to break in the chain, this will ensure optimal efficiency before a race.

Advantages of a Chain with Wax Coating:

• Enhanced Energy Efficiency: A chain coated with wax enhances energy efficiency, conserving watts.
• Prolonged Drive Chain Lifespan: Proper maintenance of the wax-coated chain can lead to a longer lifespan for your drive chain.
• Smooth and Quiet Cycling Experience: Cycling becomes smoother and quieter with the wax-coated chain.
• Rust and Dirt Protection: The wax coating acts as a safeguard against rust and the accumulation of dirt, maintaining chain integrity

Remember that hot waxing requires attention to safety. Always follow proper precautions when working with hot wax and heat sources. A double pot setup, also known as a double boiler or bain-marie, offers controlled and safe melting of wax. It provides several advantages:

• Prevents Direct Heat Contact: Wax melts gently through indirect heat from steam, avoiding scorching or ignition.
• Uniform Heating: Steam surrounds the inner pot, ensuring even melting and preventing hotspots.
• Prevents Clumping: Gentle heat prevents wax from clumping or sticking to the pot.
• Reduced Hazards: Lower risk of burning, boiling over, and potential fires.
• Temperature Control: Adjust heat for water in the outer pot to regulate wax temperature.
• Enhanced Safety: Minimizes the risk of wax ignition and improves overall safety.

In summary, a double pot setup provides controlled and safe wax melting, essential for applications like candle making, cosmetics, and chain waxing. It prevents overheating, uneven melting, and safety hazards associated with direct heat methods.
