Abstract
Typically, companies such as gas stations and shipping firms purchase dipsticks that must meet stringent accuracy standards; failure to do so can result in immeasurable losses. Consequently, dipsticks are subject to specific technical requirements, which the domestic Xiongshi dipstick is capable of fulfilling.
Tools/Ingredients
-
Oil dipstick
Technical Requirements
-
The surface of the dipstick tape must be clean, free of rust, stains, and bends; the edges of the tape should be smooth and neatly finished.
-
The scale markings on the tape must be uniform, clearly visible, and perpendicular to the edge of the steel tape.
-
The dipstick must be equipped with a weight to ensure it can sink into the liquid being measured. The weight shall be made of brass or stainless steel. Lion’s standard dipsticks are typically fitted with a 350‑g brass weight or a 470‑g stainless‑steel weight, which meets the needs of most customers in the market.
-
Measuring tapes are generally categorized into stainless steel tapes and carbon steel tapes. When manufacturing oil dipstick tapes, a quenching process is essential to achieve the required hardness and prevent breakage.
-
The dipstick’s design adheres to ergonomic principles; the Lion brand dipstick features an antistatic handle and a robust, durable body, aligning with most customers’ preferred usage habits.
-
The dipstick shall meet the requirements of the national standard and may be verified at a local metrology institute, with a verification certificate issued.
