Automotive Air Condenser Specification Example for Dealership Service: Racing Spec
Automotive Air Condenser Specification Example for Dealership Service: Racing Spec
This is a worked specification for automotive air condenser in a racing spec 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 racing spec version exists because the duty cycle on dealership service is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually premature wear on the first batch.

Example specification
| Item | Automotive Air Condenser |
|---|---|
| Application | Dealership Service |
| Version | Racing Spec |
| Base material | Sintered Metal |
| Controlled dimensions | 5 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.2 mm |
| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 2,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 7 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | IATF 16949 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Sintered Metal, 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
- injection moulding
- sintering
- anodising
- precision stamping
- cold forging
- robot welding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run racing spec most often specify this build for dealership service. Related applications include three-wheelers, agricultural trailers, delivery vans, camper conversions, off-road bikes.
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
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 2000 pieces per line.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the IATF 16949-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. IATF 16949 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
