XCP Chain Lubricant
High performance chain lubricant
- Does not attract dirt. See test.
- Dries to a soft film that does not fling.
- Withstands extreme pressure and reduces friction.
Long lasting protection against wear & corrosion
Ultra-thin & Non-sticky Film
The lubricant quickly penetrates links and sprockets to lay down a thin, non-sticky and dirt-resistant film.
Reduced Friction & Maximum Power
Built to withstand extreme pressure, reduce friction and minimise wear – maximising the power output of the chain.
Resists High Speed Fling Off
Due to unique flow properties, an ultra-thin film is laid down on the chain, with maximum fling resistance.
Avoid Corrosion
Corrosion on any chain is unwanted and the XCP Chain Lubricant will help to avoid it.
Revolutionizing the retail market
Industrial lubrication with minimal fling
Designed for Extreme and Delicate Conditions
XCP Chain Lubricant was originally designed for the high demanding and yet delicate printing industry, where press rollers spin at up to 15,000 rpm, with a force of up to 40,000 Newtons. In this environment, fling must be close to zero which was obtained by the strong formula, developed over 40 years ago.
A lot of chain lubricants are made extremely sticky in an attempt to stop fling. The XCP Chain Lubricant solves it differently. The lubricant penetrates the links and sprockets and then dries to an ultra-thin, non-sticky and even film. Left to dry overnight, the film will give minimal fling and will not attract dirt like other lubricants as it is not sticky.
As a result - cleaning of the chain and maintenance is much easier and power output is maximised!
Unique Features

- Compatible with O-, X- & Z-rings
A chain lube that does not harm the chain
In simple terms, a modern ring chain (with an O-, X- and Z-rings) requires less upkeep and takes care of itself for the expected lifetime. The best way to maintain it is regular lubrication, cleaning and adjusting according to usage.
A modern high performance chain lubrication should not only lubricate the whole chain but:
- protect the chain against corrosion;
- lubricate the contact between the roller and the sprocket;
- lubricate the area between the roller and the bushing;
- protect and not harm the O-, X- or Z-rings.
It is essential that the chain lubricant would not attack the seal and destroy the inner lubrication. You should always choose lubricants that have been tested with O-, X- and Z-rings.
If you are not using a ring chain you should also lubricate the chain itself - XCP Chain Lubricant does an extraordinary job protecting both regular chains and ring chains.
4-Ball Wear Scar Test XCP Chain Lubricant
The 4-Ball Wear Scar Test (ASTM D4172) can be used to determine the relative wear preventive properties of lubricating fluids in sliding contact.
METHOD: In the 4-Ball Wear test, one steel ball spins for 1200 rotations per minute on three stationary steel balls under a 40 kg load for 60 min., per ASTM D4172.
The better the lubricant is at preventing wear, the smaller the wear scar will be on the three stationary balls. After the test, the three wear scars are measured and the average is reported.
TEST RESULTS: The test gives a wear scar of 0.54mm for the XCP Chain Lubricant.
This international standard was developed following with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations are issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
Where to use XCP Chain Lubricant
ideal for use on all motor driven metal chains within different industries.
Motorcycle Industry
Chain lubrication has always been a hot topic within the MC industry. Correct protection of the chain will extend its lifetime and protect the sprockets.
The main problem is that fat and greasy lubricants attract dirt, which transforms the lubricant into a grinding paste. Moreover, the motorcycle gets very dirty when the chain lubricant is thrown off the chain at high speed. That makes cleaning the bike a cumbersome task.
You can avoid all the mentioned problems with the XCP Chain Lubricant's unique properties. It can be used on All Terrain Vehicles as well.
Bicycle Industry
XCP Chain Lubricant is ideal for the cycle industry.
The lubricant is so thin and non-viscous that it will cover the chain perfectly when applied correctly - a lot like other popular cycle chain lubricates. After some time, the XCP will transform into an ultra-thin coating of the chain with all the advantages.
XCP Chain Lubricant is non-sticky, reduces friction, minimises wear, resists fling and is long lasting! The product is used by many cyclists already, even by the road racing team of Andy Moore Autocentres/J.E. James Racing Team.
Production Industry
XCP products, including Chain Lubricant, were originally developed for industrial applications and the printing industry. This lubricant can be used at printing machinery to prolong its durability and eliminate downtime.
The Chain Lubricant can be also used on forklifts and lift chains, which need to be regularly serviced and lubricated to prevent chains from corroding and running dry.
The lubricant is a good solution for conveyor machinery, where lubrication is vital to obtain the maximum service life from a chain drive and conveyor.
Overall, XCP Chain Lubricant is designed for use on all metal motor driven chains and can solve problems in different industries.
Unmatched non-sticky properties
New Approach to the Known Problem
One of the key selling points of XCP Chain Lubricant is that it leaves a thin, even and non-sticky film.
Many chain lubricants are made extremely sticky in order to stop fling. However, the XCP Chain Lubricant solves the fling problem with a new approach. The lubricant penetrates the link and sprockets and dries to an ultra thin, non-sticky film that should be left to dry overnight.
As a result - the film will give minimal fling and will not attract dirt like other lubricants. Cleaning and maintenance of the chain are much easier and power output is maximised!
Don't let the chain lubricant act like a grinding paste! Try out the XCP Chain Lubricant, it's a Game Changer!
Test
To showcase it we used some steel panels that have been sprayed with XCP Chain Lubricant and a competitor chain lubricant.
We left them to dry overnight and then sprinkled the panels with synthetic dirt. After that, we rinsed the plates under the tap and wiped them once. You can see the difference between the amount of dirt that is left on the plates!
How to apply
Easy to use and long lasting
Apply the XCP Chain Lubricant sparingly and evenly to the clean chain, and ensure that excess liquid is wiped off. Ideally on a warm chain.
Due to the excellent penetration and flow properties of the XCP Chain Lubricant, be aware that a little goes a long way. Over applying will only lubricate the garage floor!
Rotate the wheel to assist flow and penetration into links and sprockets. For best results, leave overnight before use.

XCP Chain Lubricant is great at preventing wear (ASTM D4172 test results - 0.54 mm of a wear scar) and is non-sticky in comparison to competitors. The lubricant gets a lot of attraction already, but it is still a new product on the European market. See what reviewers and industrial magazines say about it!
