BOROCOAT® Premium Collars
Eliminating the Weak Link in Your String
A tubing string is only as strong as its connections. Accessories and collars often become the primary failure points in high-producing wells due to production turbulence and corrosive solids. BOROCOAT® technology enhances the surface hardness of collars and threads, creating a dense single phase Iron-Boride layer that provides extreme wear protection and reduces galling and abrasion throughout the “troubled areas” of the well.
Key Technical Specifications: Engineering Superiority over standard Collars
- Available sizes: 2-3/8”, 2-7/8”, 3-1/2”
- Surface Hardness: Extremely hard surface layer of >1450 Vickers
- API Integrity: No ID tolerance changes; standard API drift sizes remain the same after treatment.
- Thread Protection: API threads and sealing surfaces remain sharp, clean, and fully intact, no recutting or grinding required.
- All collars are clearly marked with a groove for easy identification and traceability
- Material: J55, N80, L80, 1%Cr

Proven Abrasion Resistance
Mass Loss Comparison
BOROCOAT® shows only 0.05g mass loss vs. 0.201g for standard J55 and 0,315g for mild steel.
Volume Loss Comparison
BOROCOAT® records 7.2 mm3 loss compared to 25.8 mm3 for J55 and 40,2 mm3 for mild steel
Protect your Production String with BOROCOAT® Premium Collars
The Perfect Match: For maximum longevity in deviated wells, we recommend pairing our boronized collars with BOROCOAT® Premium Tubing to handle constant rod movement and harsh environments.
Seamless Integration: Ensure your string’s integrity by using BOROCOAT® Premium Pup Joints, which offer the same high-vickers hardness at every spacing point in the string.

Benefits of BorTecs BOROCOAT® Premium Collars
- Flexible Sourcing & Toll Processing: BorTec offers the unique flexibility for customers to send their own pipes and materials to our facility for boronizing. This allows you to select your preferred material and trusted suppliers while benefiting from our premium surface hardening.
- Scalable Production: Our process is adaptable to any requirement, from small, singular orders to large-scale batch production.
- Premium Materials Only:
sourced from trusted suppliers in USA and Europe. - API Threads Fully Protected:
API threads and sealing surfaces remain sharp, clean, and fully intact — no recutting, no sand blasting, no grinding, no rework needed. - No Post-Treatment Rework Required:
Your parts arrive ready-to-run straight from the factory — reducing time, cost, and complexity. - No scale – inside or outside:
While BorTecs Premium products are free from both external surface scaling and internal mill scale, Competing products often retain mill scale inside, which interferes with boron diffusion and weakens the wear protection.
Bortec Premium Collars do not have an outside scale layer that needs to be removed after heat treatment. Our products are scale-free and meet the highest quality standards on the market.
