Description
Ritchey Liquid Torque in the 5 g tube is a premium assembly and lubrication compound engineered to help you achieve consistent, accurate torque values on carbon and lightweight components. Designed for precision builders and riders alike, this formula reduces friction between mating surfaces — such as carbon seatposts, handlebars, stems, and bolts — allowing fasteners to achieve the torque specified by the component manufacturer. The result is secure assembly with reduced risk of over-tightening, slippage, or damage to sensitive materials.
The 5 g tube size is ideal for workshop use or on-the-go adjustments, offering enough compound for multiple applications while remaining compact and easy to store. The paste spreads thinly and evenly, creating a controlled interface that ensures bolts and clamps achieve predictable torque readings. This is especially important on carbon fiber surfaces, where too much friction can lead to inaccurate torque and potential component failure.
Ritchey Liquid Torque is formulated to be compatible with most bicycle materials and finishes, helping protect against seizing and galling over time. Whether you’re assembling a new build, servicing a cockpit, or tightening accessories, this torque paste supports proper fastener performance and contributes to long-term component health. It’s a small but essential addition to any mechanic’s toolkit.
