DUCATI 1200 MONSTER [2014-2020] - Z-ring chain

The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring Chain with Rivet Link sets new standards in motorcycle chain performance and durability. Thanks to its innovative technology, this sophisticated chain does not require regular relubrication, which would otherwise be required every 1,000 km. This is a significant advantage for all motorcyclists who value low maintenance and high efficiency.

Extensive tests both in the laboratory and on the road have proven that the service life of the HPE chain is at least as long, if not longer, than that of a conventional, regularly lubricated Z-ring chain. A key element of this outstanding performance is the tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) coating, one of the most advanced forms of DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings. This coating is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers and ensures a reduction in energy losses and an increase in efficiency in the secondary drive.

The very high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction results in improved performance. Additionally, eliminating the need to clean the chain and use lubricants helps minimize environmental impact. The development of this innovative coating process was carried out through intensive research and development work by Regina engineers in Italy.

The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring chain is therefore an excellent choice for motorcyclists looking for a reliable, low-maintenance and environmentally friendly solution for their vehicle.
