■Reducing friction for greater engine performance and higher fuel efficiency Vis pursuing optimum materials and surface treatment to develop piston rings that oscillate with less friction, even under high temperatures.
← Mass production of the world's first.1.5mm narrow width,two-piece oil ring,with low
tension

■Reducing engine weight for improving fuel efficiency
We have developed a special cast iron cylinder liner that firmly adheres to aluminum by means of projections on the outer surface. The result is a lighter engine that delivers higher performance.

■Coating technology provides the improved durability called for by emission regulations
TPRV uses a PVD coating technology and diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating technology for piston rings with greater durability. These advances also extend the operating life of the piston rings.
← Nitrite nano multi-coating

■Coating technology provides the improved durability , TPRV 'technology to meet alternative fuel
The cases are increasing the use the fuel of alcohol and natural gas instead of gasoline.
If use these alternative fuels, the life time of Piston Ring and Valve Sheet will be short.
TPRV will timely supplies products corresponding to the issue , by use the know-how to develop the surface treatment and materials.
