EK 530 QX-Ring Chain 114L (10)

Meet the EK 530 QX-Ring Chain 114L (10) — a precision-engineered drive solution designed for riders who refuse to compromise on performance. Built for 530-pitch systems, this 114-link chain delivers dependable strength, smooth power transfer, and long-lasting reliability across street, sport, and track-day riding scenarios.

The standout feature is EK’s QX-Ring sealing technology, a four-point seal design that keeps dirt, grit, and moisture out while preserving lubrication inside each link. The result is noticeably smoother operation, reduced drivetrain friction, quieter running, and extended chain life even in wet or dusty conditions. If you push your bike hard on winding roads or drag race-ready torque off the line, this chain helps maintain consistent performance mile after mile.

Key benefits that matter on the road and the track

• 
  QX-Ring sealing minimizes friction and seals out contaminants, delivering longevity and steadier power transfer under varying temperatures and loads.
• 
  531-pitch compatibility ensures seamless pairing with 530-series sprockets and stock drivetrains designed for this size, reducing installation friction and misalignment concerns.
• 
  114-link length provides ample length for precise fitment on bikes whose stock chain length aligns with 114 links, allowing clean rivet installation and tensioning.
• 
  Durable construction built to withstand aggressive riding, high-torque launches, and steady highway cruising without compromising chain life.
• 
  Bulk value a 10-chain pack that’s ready for multiple bikes, weekend rides, or easy maintenance planning for performance-minded riders and workshops.
• 
  Versatile use cases ideal for street riders seeking smoother shifts, track enthusiasts chasing repeatable lap times, and off-road riders who demand resilience in harsh conditions.
