Stainless Steel Muffler Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Touring Version
Stainless Steel Muffler Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Touring Version
This is a worked specification for stainless steel muffler 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 fleet maintenance 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.

Example specification

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
- gravity casting
- shot blasting
- surface grinding
- ultrasonic cleaning
- cold forging
- rubber vulcanisation
Where this example applies
Programmes that run touring version most often specify this build for fleet maintenance. Related applications include rental motorcycles, off-road bikes, racing teams, boat trailers, dealership service.
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 is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 2000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 2000 pieces per line.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. RoHS 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 RoHS-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
