Fuel Storage System Specification Example for Three-Wheelers: Long Life Version
Fuel Storage System Specification Example for Three-Wheelers: Long Life Version
This is a worked specification for fuel storage system 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 three-wheelers is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually inconsistent hardness between lots.
Example specification
| Item | Fuel Storage System |
|---|---|
| Application | Three-Wheelers |
| Version | Long Life Version |
| Base material | Carbon Fibre Composite |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.1 mm |
| Finish | anodised |
| MOQ | 3,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | ISO/TS 16949 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Carbon Fibre 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
- shot blasting
- sintering
- precision stamping
- CNC machining
- gravity casting
- ultrasonic cleaning
Where this example applies
Programmes that run long life version most often specify this build for three-wheelers. Related applications include agricultural trailers, racing teams, off-road bikes, fleet maintenance, camper conversions.
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 testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ISO/TS 16949 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ISO/TS 16949-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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 you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
