Anti Theft Lock Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: Touring Version
Anti Theft Lock Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: Touring Version
This is a worked specification for anti theft lock in a touring 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 touring version version exists because the duty cycle on municipal 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 — Polypropylene, 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
- sintering
- heat treatment
- assembly line testing
- laser cutting
- powder coating
- gravity casting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run touring version most often specify this build for municipal fleets. Related applications include courier fleets, camper conversions, emergency vehicles, rental motorcycles, racing teams.
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 500 pieces per line.
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.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the TUV-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
