Hold Fast Carbon Paste

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I switched to Silca Hold Fast Carbon Paste after getting frustrated with the dark grease stains that every other carbon paste left on my fingers and jersey, and the difference was immediately obvious. The grip at low torque is noticeably better than anything else I have used on my seatpost and stem, and the clear silicone formula wipes off cleanly without leaving any residue on the frame or components."

A good carbon paste should disappear into your install routine without leaving a trace, and the Silca Hold Fast Carbon Paste is the first one that actually delivers on that promise. Developed alongside the pro mechanics at VISMA Lease-a-Bike, it was built to solve the real frustrations that show up in a race mechanic's daily workflow and translate directly to anyone who works on their own bike at home.

The high-tack silicone carrier grips immediately and stays put, delivering three to four times the silicate friction additive found in typical carbon pastes without any of the dyed grease that stains fingers, clothing, and painted finishes. Lower clamping torque becomes genuinely achievable without the anxiety of slippage, and cleanup with a SILCA Gear Wipe takes seconds. Safe on carbon, titanium, aluminum, and painted surfaces, it is the kind of product that makes every install feel more considered.
