Engine Oil Dipstick Tube-metal Industry knowledge
In the automotive engine operation and maintenance system, accurate monitoring of engine oil level is a core link to ensure the long-term operation of the engine. However, in the current market, some oil dipstick tubes have problems such as poor material quality, poor sealing, and dimensional deviations, which are prone to three major industry pain points: first, the tube is deformed by heat or corroded and broken, resulting in the oil dipstick being unable to accurately reach the oil pan, causing inaccurate liquid level measurement, which in turn leads to insufficient engine lubrication or excessive oil, aggravating the wear of internal components; second, the defective sealing interface process causes oil leakage and the intrusion of external contaminants, increasing the risk of oil emulsification and deterioration (according to industry data, about 32% of oil emulsification problems are related to pipeline seal failure); third, non-original specification tubes have poor installation adaptability, requiring additional modification and having a short service life, increasing the overall vehicle operation and maintenance costs.
As a high-tech enterprise with nearly 30 years of experience in the automotive pipe fittings field, JIATIAN, relying on its industry-leading water expansion bellows technology and a complete production and R&D system, has launched the?Engine Oil Dipstick Tube-Metal, which accurately targets industry pain points and serves as a core guarantee component for the engine oil monitoring system with high-specification materials, original-equipment-manufacturer (OEM)-level craftsmanship, and reliable sealing design.

I. Basic Understanding: Positioning of Oil Dipstick Metal Tubes and Product Attributes of JIATIAN

1. Core Positioning of the Component

The engine oil dipstick metal tube is a key channel connecting the engine block/oil pan and the oil dipstick, and is the "precision guiding hub" for oil level monitoring. Its structural stability directly determines the effectiveness of the oil dipstick measurement data, which in turn affects the health of the engine lubrication system.

2. Basic Attributes of JIATIAN's Products

JIATIAN's oil dipstick metal tubes are derived from the company's mature automotive pipe fitting production system, relying on the technical accumulation of Ningbo Xingxin Metal Products Factory established in 1995. They are designed in accordance with OEM-level standards, suitable for engines of various passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and engineering machinery, and are the preferred components for original replacement and modification upgrades.

Material Comparison: JIATIAN Metal Tubes vs. Traditional Tubes

Material Type High Temperature Resistance Corrosion Resistance Mechanical Stress Resistance Service Life Applicable Scenarios
JIATIAN High-specification Metal Can withstand engine compartment high temperature above 200℃ Treated with anti-rust and anti-corrosion, suitable for humid/dusty working conditions Can resist engine vibration and installation stress without bending or breaking risks 8-10 years (vehicle-level service life) Original replacement for various fuel/hybrid engines, engine modification of engineering equipment
Ordinary Iron Sheet Tube Prone to deformation above 120℃ No professional anti-rust layer, rusting occurs in 1-2 years Poor vibration resistance, easy to bend due to engine jitter 1-3 years Temporary replacement for low-end scooters
Plastic Tube Softens and deforms above 80℃ Poor anti-aging performance, easy to brittle fracture No mechanical stress resistance 0.5-1 year Simple adaptation for some old models

II. Core Functions: Four Core Roles of JIATIAN Tubes

The functional design of JIATIAN's oil dipstick metal tubes fully matches the core needs of engine oil monitoring, which is specifically reflected in:
  1. Precision Guiding Function: The tubes are formed by CNC fully automatic pipe bending machines (the company is equipped with 10 such devices), with the verticality and depth error controlled within ±0.1mm, providing a stable and straight measurement channel for the oil dipstick, ensuring that the ruler can accurately reach the bottom of the oil pan, realizing millimeter-level accurate monitoring of oil level, and eliminating misjudgment caused by guiding deviation.
  2. Protection and Isolation Function: The metal tube can effectively isolate the high temperature, oil pollution, sand and gravel in the engine compartment, avoid wear and rust of the oil dipstick rod, ensure that the scale of the ruler is clearly distinguishable, and extend the service life of the oil dipstick.
  3. Sealing and Leak-proof Function: The connection end of the tube and the engine is equipped with a special O-ring, combined with the precision interface of the company's laser welding process, to achieve double sealing protection, which not only prevents oil leakage, but also prevents external water vapor and dust from entering the oil passage, reducing the risk of oil emulsification and deterioration from the source.
  4. Convenient Assembly Function: Strictly designed in accordance with OEM specifications, it can be directly adapted to the engine installation position without additional drilling or welding. Relying on the company's complete production precision control, it realizes "instant disassembly and assembly", greatly reducing the assembly man-hours of maintenance factories.
