Racing Crankshaft Components Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Long Life Version
Racing Crankshaft Components Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Long Life Version
This is a worked specification for racing crankshaft components in a long life version programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The long life version version exists because the duty cycle on fleet maintenance is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually documentation that arrived after the container shipped.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Nylon 66, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.
Processes involved
- heat treatment
- die casting
- anodising
- sintering
- electroplating
- assembly line testing
Where this example applies
Programmes that run long life version most often specify this build for fleet maintenance. Related applications include boat trailers, racing teams, light trucks, construction equipment, long-haul trucks.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. CCC documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 500 pieces per line.
Ask for the current catalogue and the specification sheet for this line.
