TiN Gold

Titanium nitride is a chemical compound composed of the elements titanium and nitrogen. This ceramic material, typically golden yellow in color, is known for its exceptional hardness and corrosion resistance. KMC's special Titanium Nitride coating not only has an attractive appearance but also features an ultra-smooth surface and exceptional durability.

Advice

Derailleur gears are expected to withstand external weather conditions and hard continuous stress and transmit the rider‘s shifting impulses smoothly and quietly. Today, high-quality materials and coatings as well as constructive fine-tuning (e.g. x-Bridge) of the chain links enable a long service life with regular chain maintenance. However, the chain should be checked regularly and the chain longation checked with a chain gauge. The wear of the chain is highly dependent on the type of application and the shifting behaviour of the driver. Worn chains also accelerate the wear of the other – usually much more expensive – drive components.

Chains for derailleur systems are subject to special requirements due to the design of these systems. To prevent increased wear and to maintain good shifting performance, the chain should be cleaned and maintained regularly.
