Can anyone tell me if graphite (the erasol type in a can) could be used on a o ring chain?

I tried a search but no luck.(I 'm not sure if I spelled "graphite" properly).

I've never heard of it before,just a brain wave I had.

 

It'll probably fling right off, it's a real thin lube like wd-40, right? I use an o-ring chain specific lube, it's thick and sticky so once it gets on there it doesnt fling off, and there's no possibility of it damaging your rings.

 

I guess I have only seen it sprayed on slow moving chains..
Good point,it prob. would fling off.

 

i dont know about using graphite but in sand i like to use WD-40 on my chian i use to spray yama lube chain crap on it but the dealer here told me i would be better off using WD-40 then a oil of some sort in dirt i just run reg. chain lube

 

I've always read that all you need with an o-ring chain is a rust preventative since lubricant is sealed inside the chain. I also use WD-40.

 

Graphite(yes, you spelled it OK) tends to turn into a sludgy mess when it gets wet. Probably not the best solution for an off road chain. I use whatever chain lube is cheap and apply it before ridiing. Before putting her to bed for the night I'll spray it up with some WD-40.

 

Thanks for the advice,I will stay away from the graphite.
