The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring Chain with Rivet Link sets new standards in motorcycle chain performance and durability. This advanced chain no longer requires regular relubrication thanks to its innovative Z-ring technology, making it ideal for motorcyclists looking for a low-maintenance solution. The usual relubrication every 1,000 km is no longer necessary, which not only saves time but also protects the environment.
Regina's HPE chain has been extensively tested both in the lab and on the road and has proven to have a lifespan at least as long, if not longer, than a conventionally lubricated Z-ring chain. Another highlight of this chain is the coating with Tetrahedral Amorphous Carbon (ta-C), one of the most advanced coatings from the group of DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings. This coating is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers and reduces energy losses while increasing efficiency in the secondary drive.
The combination of extremely high hardness of the coated surface and a low coefficient of friction leads to improved performance. Eliminating the need to clean the chain and use lubricants also minimizes environmental impact. These technological advances were made possible by the intensive research and development work of Regina engineers in Italy.
