What is Oxygen sensor boss?
An oxygen sensor boss refers to a threaded hole or boss on an exhaust system component, such as the exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, or exhaust pipe, where an oxygen sensor (also known as an O2 sensor) is installed. The boss provides a designated location for the oxygen sensor to be screwed in securely.
The oxygen sensor is an important component in modern automotive systems, as it measures the oxygen content in the exhaust gases. It helps the engine control unit (ECU) monitor and adjust the air-fuel mixture for optimal combustion efficiency and to reduce emissions. The oxygen sensor boss ensures proper positioning and attachment of the oxygen sensor to accurately measure the oxygen levels in the exhaust gases.

Production process introduce
1. Tooling Build
Design and building a metal die from Aluminum
2. Wax Injection
Injecting melted wax under high pressure into the cavity to get a pattern that replicates the finished part geometry
3. Wax Pattern Assembly
The wax patterns are assembled onto runners and into a finished tree which is ready to be dipped.
4. Slurry Coating
The assembly is then dipped into a high-grade ceramic slurry to build a ceramic shell around the wax tree.
5. Ceramic Shell build & Dry the shell
After the slurry coating is done, particles of sand are dropped onto the surface of the wet tree assembly. This helps to thicken and strengthen the layer of coating on the wax assembly surface, repeat 5-6 times.
6. De-waxing
Send the shell into pre-heating oven and then the wax inside the newly built shell is now removed. Dewaxing is done using a steam-dewaxing autoclave or flash fire furnace.
7. Melting & Pouring & cooling
Now the desired molten metal is poured into the pre-heated empty mold cavity, The mold then sits to allow the molten metal to cool and solidify which then becomes the final casting.
8. Shell Removal
The shell material is then removed through processes hammer knockout, vibration, and steel grit blasting
9. Cut-off
The finished parts are then cut free from the gating and runner system.
10. Grinding pouring gate
The ingate which remained after the sawing process, is grinded from the casting.
11. Final inspection
Once the finishing operations are done, the parts are inspected for surface and sub-surface defects.
12. Packaging & Delivery
For oversea shipping, we packaging with standard wooden pallet with size limited 1200*800mm

You can find our contact info for further communication in “Contact US” column.
The 2&3D drawing format can be PDF, STEP, DWG, DXF and soon, can be sent via email. Wechat, WhatsApp, link.
After clear the demand of customer, we can send you the quotation with PDF format for documentation.
For requirements for confidentiality of drawings, we can signed the NDA before you send drawing.
The feasibility study of drawing is most key point to ensure the part can be fully meet drawing specifications, which is include material, dimension, surface treatment, and testing request.
Shipping and lead time
