Mixed Service Tire Specification Example for Construction Equipment: Lightweight Version
Mixed Service Tire Specification Example for Construction Equipment: Lightweight Version
This is a worked specification for mixed service tire in a lightweight 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 lightweight version version exists because the duty cycle on construction equipment is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a supplier who changed material without saying so.
Example specification
| Item | Mixed Service Tire |
|---|---|
| Application | Construction Equipment |
| Version | Lightweight Version |
| Base material | Kevlar Composite |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.05 mm |
| Finish | as machined |
| MOQ | 1,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | DOT |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Kevlar Composite, 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
- electroplating
- robot welding
- shot blasting
- die casting
- gravity casting
- cold forging
Where this example applies
Programmes that run lightweight version most often specify this build for construction equipment. Related applications include racing teams, camper conversions, construction equipment, boat trailers, utility trailers.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 2.5 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
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 1000 pieces per line.
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.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the DOT-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. DOT documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Tell us the model, the fitment and the quantity and we will hold a production slot for you.
