Clip-On Mirror Replacement Specification Example for Construction Equipment: Quick Fit Version
Clip-On Mirror Replacement Specification Example for Construction Equipment: Quick Fit Version
This is a worked specification for clip-on mirror replacement in a quick fit 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 quick fit version version exists because the duty cycle on construction equipment is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually documentation that arrived after the container shipped.

Questions buyers ask
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 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.
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.
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.
Ask for the current catalogue and the specification sheet for this line.
