JH Brothers Technology Pte.Ltd. has announced a significant breakthrough in precision tubing surface treatment technology, successfully developing a proprietary low-friction, corrosion-resistant coating process that sets a new benchmark for tubing performance in high-precision applications.
The new surface treatment combines nanoscale passivation with electrophoretic coating, creating a dual-layer protective film that reduces surface roughness (Ra) to as low as 0.2μm—15% lower than traditional processes—while enhancing corrosion resistance by 40% in salt-spray tests (passing 1000+ hours of continuous exposure). This technology is particularly applicable to precision tubes for automotive hydraulic systems and hexagon shaft tubes for transmission components, where smooth surfaces and anti-corrosion properties are critical to operational efficiency and service life.
The R&D team spent 12 months optimizing the process, which is now integrated into the company’s full-production line and has received patent approval in Singapore and key global markets. “This technological breakthrough underscores our focus on R&D-driven quality improvement,” said [Name], Chief Technology Officer at JH Brothers. “It enables us to deliver higher-value tubing solutions to our clients and strengthens our competitive edge in the high-precision steel tubing sector.”
