THEY USED TO BOIL CHAINS TO LUBE THEM PROPERLY i i It used to be t an old tr ick to ' heat up heavyweig ht oil and dip yo ur cha in into it. The oil would thin out and pen et rate the ent ire chain. When it was removed . the o il would th icke n and lubricate the cha in properly . In theory, we've done the same w ith ou r chain oil . but now we use a high qual ity gr ease . The Hi·Point Cha in O il is specially formu lated to go on th in to penetrate deep into pins and rollers. The carrier agent then evaporates. leaving a high strength film of grease deep in th e pins and rollers. Now you can lube yo ur chai n properly w ithout the mes s ot boi ling .
