Regina Transmission Chain HPE 525 (maintenance free)
The innovative and revolutionary Regina Z-Ring High Performance Endurance (HPE) chain eliminates the periodic re-lubrication performed by the motorcyclist every 1,000 km. Numerous laboratory and road tests show that the HPE chain achieves a useful life at least equivalent, if not greater, than that of a traditional, regularly re-lubricated Z-Ring chain. The hydrogen free Tetrahedral Amorphous Carbon (ta-C) coating, currently considered the most advanced of the DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings, is applied to the surfaces of the bushings and rollers of the HPE chain. The ta-C coating, combining the high hardness of the coated surface with a low coefficient of friction, reduces the dissipation of energy in the secondary transmission and therefore increases its efficiency. The elimination of chain cleaning operations and lubricant splashes while driving minimize the environmental impact. The innovative ta-C coating process was developed with intense R & amp; D work by Regina technicians and is entirely carried out in the Cernusco Lombardone (LC) plant in Italy. The transmission with Regina HPE chain does not require the use of special crowns and pinions and eliminates periodic lubrication.
