Designed for Winter

New PFAS free version 2

DESIGNED FOR WINTER – BETTER PROTECTION AGAINST SNOW, FREEZE AND ROAD SALT

The winter version of Domestique has been improved with a completely PFAS-free formula that is even more water-resistant and less affected by temperature changes.

Based on the popular Rex Domestique chain lube, the new Rex Arctic is a wax and oil hybrid lube that is resistant to snow, frost and road salt. Its composition has been improved for winter conditions with Rex N-Kinetic hydrophobic polymers. The improved winter properties include even better water resistance and effective corrosion prevention. The viscosity of Rex Arctic is optimized for cold conditions, and it lubricates without congealing even in the hardest frosts.

WAX-BASED SOLVENT-FREE, NON-VAPORIZING, UNDILUTED

Adding solvent or water to a chain lube is generally thought to be a great way to reduce manufacturing costs and give the manufacturer a better margin. At Rex, we think otherwise. Every drop you apply on the chain is 100% lubricant and not something that will evaporate into the air. Unlike with most chain lubes, there is no need to wait until the solvent evaporates before you can ride your bike.

LONG LASTING AMPLE AND ECONOMICAL IN USE

Rex Arctic shares the well documented lubricating performance and longevity of Domestique, and is thus among the best in it class. Despite its small size, each bottle is enough for up to 30 lubrications. Independent laboratory tests in Finland and Australia have proven Rex’s top-class lubrication ability. Low friction and low chain wear go hand in hand, and using Rex will make chains and cassette sprockets last longer.

DETAILED APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR BEST PERFORMANCE

Clean and degrease the chain thoroughly using a detergent like Rex Chain Cleaner, a chain cleaning device, or a brush. Rinse well with water and let it dry completely. Shake the bottle well and begin applying lube, 1 drop per roller, while pedaling backward. Use your fingers to smooth out and work the lube into the rollers while backpedaling at least 3-4 revolutions. Repeat by applying 1 drop per roller using the same method. Wipe off excess lube from the surface of the chain to avoid excess dirt build-up—only the lube inside the chain matters.

RELUBRICATION WHEN THE CHAIN STARTS TO SOUND DRY

Wipe the chain with a cloth or tissue until it appears clean. Apply lube, 1 drop per roller, as instructed above. Thorough cleaning is only needed if the chain is extremely contaminated. Depending on conditions, the typical relubrication interval is 50-500 km.
