I have no fucking idea. It's made for a chain. So I used it on a chain. In fact, it's sitting in my shed collecting dust right now.

I probably need to do a good overhaul on my chain. Ive had it for about 3k miles and its never been cleaned. i know the rear sprocket is black and its supposed to be silver lol. Its got a lot of crap stuck on it. I think im going to have to clean it this week. I didnt really realize how bad it was till i read this and started thinking about it.
