Squirt Performance Hot Wax is a high-performance molten wax chain treatment that was engineered for cyclists who demand efficient, clean operation, extreme durability, and scientifically optimized drivetrain protection. Built from a refined blend of inherently biodegradable paraffinic and synthetic waxes, Squirt Performance Hot Wax offers exceptional penetration, low friction, and long-lasting performance — even under the toughest racing and adventure conditions.
Traditional melt-wax lubricants often require intensive mechanical break-in procedures — such as manually articulating the chain over a pipe — to free up stiff links before installation on the bike. Thereafter these waxes require up to 90-120 minutes to set properly and reach their optimal performance. Squirt Performance Hot Wax, by contrast, is race-ready straight out of the pot and only needs a simple pull-through of the chain between your forefinger and thumb to ensure smooth articulation. This saves valuable time and effort for riders and offers a significant efficiency gain for team mechanics managing multiple bikes and chains under tight turnarounds.
Squirt Performance Hot Wax was developed and laboratory tested to be inherently biodegradable, free from solvents, and is PFAS-free — making it safer for you, your components, and the environment.
- Paraffinic + synthetic wax base for optimal melt, metal adhesion, and retention.
- Fast-acting antiwear ingredient system provides reliable protection from the start.
- hBN solid lubricant for ultra-low friction and quiet operation.
- No break-in period required — ride immediately after application.
- Clean, dust-resistant, and thermally stable across re-melts.
- Inherently Biodegradable, PFAS-free, solvent-free.
- Up to 30 lubrication cycles
Why it works
We applied advanced thermal and formulation technologies to precisely calibrate the melt behavior and crystallinity of the wax matrix. This ensures that the final product can be remelted multiple times without compromising performance prematurely, making it both reusable and consistent across applications. By combining synthetic and paraffinic wax fractions, Squirt Performance Hot Wax Hot Wax delivers deep penetration into chain internals when molten, then solidifies into a smooth, high-strength lubricating film that remains clean, durable, and effective for long distances between treatments.
To further enhance drivetrain protection, Squirt Performance Hot Wax incorporates a proprietary, fast-acting antiwear additive system that forms a load-activated protection film — eliminating metal-on-metal contact between chain components. This is complemented by the inclusion of three different particle size hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), a high-purity solid lubricant known for its ultra-low friction and excellent stability in conditions typically encountered in cycling. The hBN works with the proprietary antiwear additive system and fills microscopic surface irregularities, enabling moving parts to glide over one another with minimal resistance, resulting in a quiet, efficient drivetrain that thrives in the most demanding riding conditions.
