SILCA is a legendary Italian cycling accessories brand founded outside Milan in 1917 by Alfredo Imperatori, known for pioneering the first high-pressure frame pump and floor pump with a gauge. In 2014, it was acquired by former Zipp Technical Director Josh Poertner and relocated to Indianapolis, USA, blending its classic Italian craftsmanship with modern engineering.
Today, SILCA makes ultra-premium pumps with rebuildable designs and signature leather gaskets, top-tier chain lubes and waxes, precision tools like hex keys and torque wrenches, and eco-friendly maintenance products such as its sealants, cleaner & degreasers.
