Box One Prime 9 Speed DLC Chain

This 9 speed MTB chain features a hardened alloy steel construction, which makes it more than capable of handling every challenge that you’re met with on the mountains. Classed as Box’s best performing chain, this model is also equipped with a durable dual-coating with nickel-plating for protection against corrosion. This makes it suitable for use in all-weather conditions, while its durable hardened solid pins give it extra durability on the most demanding of trails.

The Box One chain is protected by our dual-coating. We start with Nickel plating which aids in corrosion resistance and then top it off with the “Diamond-Like Carbon” layer. The DLC is as fancy as it sounds; a synthetic diamond nano-coating that turns up the volume on hardness, wear-resistance, and slickness. All Prime 9 chains have chamfered shifting edges, solid plates and solid pins to safeguard durability. Our unique inner link spacing is engineered to grab those modern wide/narrow chainrings. We chose to modernize the 9-speed platform due to the chain’s spirited reputation.
