SIL-TEC:
At the heart of the HG701´s superior performance is SHIMANO´s revolutionary SIL-TEC technology. This ultra-low friction surface treatment is far superior to a simple coating. SIL-TEC is an advanced plating process that improves overall system performance through the use of embedded fluorine particles. This cutting-edge process dramatically reduces friction, noise, and wear. Products featuring SIL-TEC run smoother and wear significantly longer in all conditions, ensuring your drivetrain maintains peak efficiency for an extended lifespan, even in mud, dust, or wet environments.
