The Kart Care Essential Maintenance Kit

This line of Kart Care products provides a solid foundation for both daily maintenance and a complete "refresh" of your kart. Whether you’re prepping for a race weekend or cleaning up after a session, here is how each component of this kit functions to keep your kart in top shape:

The Essential Maintenance Kit

1. Brake Cleaner

• Purpose: Degreasing and safety.

• Application: Use this on brake discs and pads to remove dust, oil, and grime. It’s also effective for cleaning the sprocket, chain, and engine cases because it dries quickly without leaving a residue.

2. Carburettor Cleaner

• Purpose: Internal and external engine performance.

• Application: Spray into the carb throat or use it to clean internal jets and the butterfly valve. It dissolves gum and varnish deposits, ensuring crisp throttle response and consistent idling.

3. Bearing Lubricant

• Purpose: Precision friction reduction.

• Application: Specifically designed for ball bearings and ball joints (like those on your steering column or tie rods). It is a lighter lubricant that penetrates deep into the bearing race to ensure smooth movement without the drag of heavy grease.

4. Chain Lubricants

You have two options here depending on track conditions and heat:

• Cool-Run: The "New Generation" lube. It is designed for absolute lubrication with a focus on staying fluid enough to cool the chain during high-speed sessions.

• Extreme: A "Sticky" formula. Best used when you need maximum adhesion (the "extra slip" refers to the internal friction reduction while the spray itself resists flinging off the chain at high RPM).
