Article: Z-ring chain.
Discover the innovative and revolutionary Z-ring chain from Regina, specially developed for high performance and endurance (High Performance Endurance, HPE). This chain sets new standards in the motorcycle industry by eliminating the need for regular relubrication, which is typically required every 1,000 km. Extensive laboratory and road testing has proven that the lifespan of the HPE chain is at least equivalent to, if not greater than, that of a traditional, regularly lubricated Z-ring chain.
An outstanding feature 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 chain's bushings and rollers and reduces energy losses while increasing efficiency in the secondary drive. The extremely high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction results in improved performance and longevity.
Additionally, the elimination of chain cleaning and lubricant splash during operation helps minimize environmental impact. This technological innovation was made possible by intensive research and development work by Regina engineers in Italy. The HPE Z-Ring chain from Regina is an excellent choice for motorcyclists who value performance, efficiency and environmental protection.
