12V Electric Car Fridge Specification Example for Courier Fleets: Reinforced Build
12V Electric Car Fridge Specification Example for Courier Fleets: Reinforced Build
This is a worked specification for 12v electric car fridge in a reinforced build 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 reinforced build version exists because the duty cycle on courier fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually warranty claims traced back to a single lot.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Zinc Plated Steel, 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
- CNC machining
- gravity casting
- surface grinding
- heat treatment
- robot welding
- precision stamping
Where this example applies
Programmes that run reinforced build most often specify this build for courier fleets. Related applications include fleet maintenance, construction equipment, rental motorcycles, off-road bikes, agricultural 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.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 1000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ECE R90 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
