Product Description
Angstrom Research Celeritas
Angstrom Research Celeritas is one of the most innovative speedcube lubricants ever developed, introducing a unique two-part system that creates a turning feel unlike traditional silicone or water-based lubricants. Designed by Angstrom Research to push the boundaries of cube performance, Celeritas uses a chemical reaction between two separate components to generate an exceptionally fast, smooth, and long-lasting gliding sensation.
Unlike conventional lubricants that rely on a single compound, Celeritas consists of Reagent A and Reagent B, which work together after application. Similar to technologies used in epoxy resins and curing compounds, the two components must remain separate until use. Once combined inside the puzzle, they undergo a controlled chemical reaction that produces Celeritas' distinctive feel.
Reagent A contains a specialised silicone suspension carrying carbon-based monomers. Carefully selected additives keep these monomers stable and prevent them from reacting prematurely, ensuring maximum effectiveness once the second component is introduced.
Reagent B activates the reaction process. As the puzzle is turned, it encourages the monomers in Reagent A to cross-link, creating a unique low-friction gliding layer throughout the puzzle. This process not only produces the signature smooth and fast feel but also helps maintain that performance for an extended period of time, making Celeritas one of the most durable lubricant systems available.
The resulting experience is difficult to compare directly to traditional lubricants. Celeritas combines the speed associated with lighter lubricants, the smoothness of premium silicone products, and the longevity of more advanced lubricant systems, all while creating its own distinctive glide that many speedcubers describe as unlike anything else on the market.
This makes Celeritas particularly appealing to advanced cubers who enjoy experimenting with puzzle setup and are looking for a highly specialised performance upgrade.

How to Apply
-
Thoroughly clean the puzzle and remove any previous lubricant residue.
-
Add 1-2 drops of Reagent A to the puzzle.
-
Perform several solves or extensive turning to distribute Reagent A evenly throughout the internal surfaces.
-
Add 2-3 drops of Reagent B.
-
Immediately begin turning the puzzle to ensure an even reaction throughout the mechanism.
-
Continue solving as the lubricant develops its final performance characteristics.
Because the initial feel of Reagent A differs significantly from the final reacted lubricant, careful application is important. Using too much Reagent A may result in a puzzle that feels slower than intended.
Big Cube Recommendation
For larger puzzles such as 4x4, 5x5, 6x6, and 7x7 cubes, Angstrom Research recommends using slightly less Reagent A and slightly more Reagent B to achieve optimal results.
Important Notes
-
Some puzzles respond more favourably to Celeritas than others due to differences in plastic composition and internal design.
-
If the puzzle feels too fast after application, a heavier silicone lubricant can be added to increase control.
-
If the puzzle feels too slow, it is recommended to clean the puzzle and reapply using less Reagent A.
Disclaimer: Celeritas is intended for speedcube maintenance only. Do not consume. Keep out of reach of children and store in a cool, dry location.
Metal Parts Warning: Celeritas contains water. Do not apply directly to metal components such as springs, screws, bearings, or other exposed metal parts, as prolonged exposure may increase the risk of corrosion.
Shipping Information
Shipping is done via Royal Mail, stock is located in Peterborough, United Kingdom so should arrive to UK addresses within a few days, international shipping may take a bit longer and transit times can vary significantly.
For most items I currently offer two shipping methods:
Tracked 24 for £3.95: around 98% of orders arrive next day after dispatch with this method
Tracked 48 for £2.85: usually takes 2 days after dispatch but does vary.
For orders weighing under 50g I offer these two shipping methods:
1st class for £3.95 which usually arrives next day
2nd class for £2.85 which usually takes 2-3 days
For customers outside the UK:
International Standard: non-tracked service that usually takes about a week but can take longer, please do not be surprised when the 'tracking number' you receive doesn't work, it isn't meant to.
International Tracked and Signed: tracked service that usually takes about a week but can vary.
You are responsible for checking local import and tax laws and are responsible for paying any taxes you may incur when the item arrives in your country. Please ensure your address is findable by your local postal services, I would suggest putting your address into Google Maps to make sure it is findable.
Returns Policy
Returns
If the item is faulty:
If you find a fault with the product within 30 days that significantly restricts your ability to use it you may request to return it for fixing or a replacement if fixing is not possible. Once you have provided reasonable evidence that the product is faulty and cannot easily be fixed then you can return it to 90 Culley Court, Peterborough, PE2 6WA
I will then attempt to fix it myself, usually I will be able to easily fix it and can then send it back to you quickly, if I am unable to fix it then I can offer a replacement of the product or a refund or similar product if the item is no longer in stock.
Please note that if a cube pops, this is not a reasonable justification for a return, all good cubes have the potential to pop occasionally, if it happens frequently you should consider tightening the tensions or turning more smoothly. Learning to fix popped cubes is an important part of your growth and development as a cuber, it is a very useful skill to develop, I have some tutorials on fixing pops on my youtube channel and there are obviously many more online.
If the item is not faulty
Our policy lasts 30 days. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase, unfortunately we can’t offer you a refund or exchange.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging.
To commence a return please email daniel@speedcubing.org providing your order number and reason for the return.
There are certain situations where only partial refunds are granted (if applicable)
- Any item not in its original condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error
- Any item that is returned more than 30 days after delivery
Refunds (if applicable)
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
