2. X-ring chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ring_chain

   Difference between X-ring and regular O-ring chains. The seals are red in color. The X-ring chain is a specialized type of sealed roller chain used to transfer mechanical power. Like the standard O-ring chains it is also used in high-performance motorcycles. It uses X-ring seal to keep lubricant (usually grease) in place.

3. Self-lubricating chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-lubricating_chain

   As with standard roller chains, self-lubricating roller chains consist of five basic parts: inner plates, outer plates, pins, bushes, and rollers. However, the bushes for self-lubricating chains are sintered metal, produced using powder metallurgy. Self-lubricating chains can be manufactured cheaply, quickly, and to precision tolerances. [8]

4. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   Breakdown of VIIs under shear is a concern in motorcycle applications, where the transmission may share lubricating oil with the motor. For this reason, motorcycle-specific oil is sometimes recommended. [19] The necessity of higher-priced motorcycle-specific oil has also been challenged by at least one consumer organization. [20]

   Many riders also fit aftermarket chain-oilers to feed a regular supply of oil to the chain at the rear sprocket. [8] These chain oilers vary in sophistication, but all add significantly to the life of the chain. The custom of lubing by immersing the chain in a tin of hot grease ceased in the early 1970s, once most chains had rubber "O'-rings.

6. O-ring chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring_chain

   O-ring chains are most notably used in motorcycles, one of the most demanding applications for a metal chain. High rpm and heavy loads require bulky chains, but such engineering increases the effect of friction compared to lighter chains. So lubrication plays a vital role here, but the high rpm also makes it very difficult to keep lubrication ...

7. Synthetic oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_oil

   A sample of synthetic motor oil. Synthetic oil is a lubricant consisting of chemical compounds that are artificially modified or synthesised. Synthetic oil is used as a substitute for petroleum-refined oils when operating in extreme temperature, in metal stamping to provide environmental and other benefits, and to lubricate pendulum clocks.
