Warranty

SILCA publishes its written warranty, including what it covers and what it excludes, at silca.cc/pages/silca-warranty-information. We will send you a free copy of that warranty on request. Email support@hammerandhowl.com or call (206) 420-9548.

What's included

Not included: A chain tool or master-link pliers. The chain is waxed already, so do not degrease it before the first ride: the wax is the lubricant. You size the chain to your drivetrain with a chain tool, then join it with the SRAM Eagle PowerLock Connector in the box. Taking the chain off later needs master-link pliers, and the PowerLock is single-use, so use a fresh one each time the chain is joined. Many home mechanics do this job, and if you would rather not, any bike shop can fit it for you. Tell them the chain is pre-waxed, so it must not be degreased or oiled.

Will it fit your bike?

Compatible with

  • SRAM Eagle 12-speed drivetrains that use a rear derailleur on a hanger, including:
    • NX Eagle
    • GX Eagle
    • X01 Eagle
    • XX1 Eagle
    • SX Eagle
    • Eagle S100
    • Eagle S200
    • Eagle S500
    • Eagle AXS groups that are not Transmission
  • Any SRAM Eagle 12-speed tier (a chain from one tier works on another)

Not compatible with

  • SRAM Eagle Transmission (T-Type) drivetrains, the direct-mount, hangerless system, which use a Flattop Eagle Transmission chain
  • SRAM 12-speed Flattop road drivetrains (which use a road-specific Flattop chain):
    • RED eTap AXS
    • Force eTap AXS
    • Rival eTap AXS
    • Apex eTap AXS
  • 11-speed, 10-speed and older drivetrains
  • Drivetrain systems from other manufacturers, such as Shimano and Campagnolo

Confirm before ordering

This is a pre-waxed SRAM Eagle 12-speed chain for a hanger-mounted Eagle drivetrain. If you are not sure which you have, look at the rear derailleur. An Eagle Transmission derailleur bolts straight to the frame with no hanger, and a bike with that derailleur takes a Flattop chain, not this one. If you are still not sure, ask your bike mechanic or Hammer & Howl before ordering.

Eagle is SRAM's 12-speed mountain-bike drivetrain, the one with a rear derailleur on a hanger, and underneath the wax this is its standard chain.

The names are easy to confuse:

  • X01 Eagle is not X0 Transmission
  • XX1 Eagle is not XX Transmission
  • GX Eagle is not GX Eagle Transmission
  • Eagle S100 is not S1000 Eagle Transmission
  • Eagle S200 is not S1000 Eagle Transmission
  • Eagle S500 is not S1000 Eagle Transmission
