About Us
A LITTLE HISTORY
HOBA’s Evolution in Brake Seal Excellence
We're a family-owned company, founded in 1999. During the early years, we produced various brake cylinders; soon, our founder realized that rubber seals are the heart of every brake system. This insight led us to invest nearly a decade studying and improving our EPDM rubber formulas for brake seals , caliper seals , brake boots , and brake cups . After years of experimentation and optimization, HOBA now serves customers across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas, providing high-performance brake components that meet the highest standards of safety and durability.
WE ARE MANUFACTURERS OF EPDM BRAKE SEALS
HOBA from Taiwan – Manufacturer of EPDM Brake Seals and Rubber Brake Components
HOBA is a Taiwan-based, family-owned manufacturer specializing in EPDM brake seals and rubber components for automotive brake systems. Founded in 1999, we focus on the development and production of EPDM rubber brake seals, caliper seals, brake cups, and brake repair kits, serving both OEM and aftermarket applications worldwide. Early on, we recognized that the true foundation of braking safety lies in the quality, stability, and reliability of the rubber sealing components. This belief led HOBA to invest nearly ten years in EPDM rubber formulation research and optimization, ensuring consistent performance under brake fluid exposure, pressure cycling, and demanding operating conditions. Today, we support a diverse global customer base with precision-manufactured brake seal solutions, maintaining strict control from raw material selection through final production. All HOBA products are manufactured to meet ASTM and JIS standards, reflecting our commitment to quality, consistency, and long-term braking safety.
Innovative Mold Development and Rubber Formulation for Brake Seals
Advanced CNC Precision and 10+ Years of EPDM Brake Rubber Innovation
At HOBA, our advanced CNC precision machining center enables the in-house development of high-accuracy molds with excellent dimensional control and surface finish. This precision ensures that every EPDM brake seal, caliper seal, brake boot, and brake cup is manufactured with consistent quality, tight tolerances, and reliable sealing performance that meets international automotive standards. With more than 10 years of experience in EPDM brake rubber formulation, HOBA has developed proprietary compound designs optimized for brake fluid compatibility and long-term durability. By carefully selecting EPDM polymers, Zinc Oxide, Stearic acid, and specialized auxiliaries, and enhancing them with performance-driven additives, our formulations achieve superior resistance to brake fluid, compression set, thermal aging, and heat exposure up to 175 °C—key requirements for heavy-duty automotive brake systems. This continuous innovation in precision mold development and EPDM brake rubber formulation has positioned HOBA as a trusted global manufacturer of EPDM brake seals, caliper seals, brake boots, and brake cups, delivering long-lasting reliability, safety, and performance for OEM and aftermarket customers worldwide.
