Carbogrip is a synthetic resin for the assembly of carbon parts. Applied, it creates a grippy surface that promotes stability. It’s also great as threadlocker and to eliminate creaking in the bottom bracket area.
Exclusive Features:
- it’s anti-slip: avoids unwanted movements of clamped components.
- it’s anti-seizing: allows the removal of any component, even after a long time.
- it’s effective against creaking of Press-Fit bottom brackets.
- it’s perfect as threadlocker for metal or composite bolts.
- it’s water-proof: it remains effective for a long time.
- it’s an electric insulator: prevents galvanic corrosion and cold welding between metals.
- doesn’t scratch carbon parts and can be completely removed.
- it’s extremely versatile: we keep on finding new applications for Carbogrip (listed below).
The perfect complement for Giustaforza torque wrench
Even a torque wrench like our Giustaforza is sometimes not enough when dealing with carbon components, especially if they do not stay tight despite having been clamped with the recommended torque values. Experience tells us that the shiny surface of some carbon parts might force us to exceed the maximum torque - with all risks associated - in order to keep that part in place. To avoid that scenario we created Carbogrip, a special high-molecular-weight silicon resin, spray or liquid: applied on a component, it creates a solid anti-slip layer.
How it works
When the clamping force is applied, the anti-slip layer of Carbogrip prevents the component from moving. On the other hand, when the clamping force is released, Carbogrip - thanks to its anti-seizing characteristics - allows an easy removal of the component.
Effective for a long time
With the passing of time and with repeated washing, some assembly components lose their properties. Not Carbogrip, because it creates a very stable and effective layer with the following features:
- it’s waterproof: if used on a seat-post, it prevents water from getting into the frame;
- it’s an electric insulator: avoids galvanic corrosion/cold welding between different metals;
- it’s resistant to very high temperatures: in cycling applications, the resin won’t melt or migrate nor change its properties.
Carbogrip can be easily removed using Carbomove or another petrol-based solvent (e.g. aviation spirit, Hexane).
Many application for Carbogrip
Originally created as a synthetic resin for assembly carbon components, since the very beginning Carbogrip has been a worthy ally for cycling mechanics, excelling in different applications:
- it’s great as threadlocker (for steel, titanium, aluminium, carbon bolts);
- it’s ideal for neoprene mountain bike grips: applied on the internal grip surface, it makes sure the grip easily slides onto the handlebar, locking it in place after a few minutes. The grip can then be removed blowing air inside with a compressor;
- spread on the bead of tubeless tyres, it prevents any movement with low-pressure riding;
- if applied on the frame when assembling the bottom bracket, it’s great to prevent noises or creaking in the BB area (both threaded and press-fit BBs);
- and many many other!

How to use Carbogrip as an assembly compound
- Carefully clean/degrease the assembling surfaces. If assembling a seat-post: be sure to remove any grease trace inside the seat tube too;
- Apply Carbogrip on the component and immediately assemble it;
- Tighten the mounting bolts at the suggested torque value;
- Wait 3-5 minutes before using the component;
- Unwanted Carbogrip traces can be removed with Carbomove or another petrol-based solvent
Size
Carbogrip is available in pack of 2 blisters (3 ml of liquid resin each).
About Brand
Effetto Mariposa was born in 2007 with Giustaforza, the first torque wrench specially designed for cycling. Why did we do it? Because we think that every bicycle equipped with high-end components deserves a professional maintenance, with professional tools. After more than ten years, Giustaforza is still the benchmark in the industry.
Today, Effetto Mariposa specializes in bicycle torque wrenches, accessories for tubeless tyres, visco-elastic protective films and much more. Everything is designed and developed for cycling purpose. Effetto Mariposa is located just outside Lugano, Cantone Ticino (Switzerland).
