Engine Performance Additive Specification Example for Dealership Service: Reinforced Build
Engine Performance Additive Specification Example for Dealership Service: Reinforced Build
This is a worked specification for engine performance additive in a reinforced build 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 reinforced build 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 a specification nobody had written down.

Example specification
| Item | Engine Performance Additive |
|---|---|
| Application | Dealership Service |
| Version | Reinforced Build |
| Base material | Nylon 66 |
| Controlled dimensions | 4 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.5 mm |
| Finish | anodised |
| MOQ | 200 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 7 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | DOT |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Nylon 66, 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
- anodising
- robot welding
- CNC machining
- shot blasting
- ultrasonic cleaning
- heat treatment
Where this example applies
Programmes that run reinforced build most often specify this build for dealership service. Related applications include delivery vans, camper conversions, boat trailers, light trucks, rental motorcycles.
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
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 7 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 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 DOT-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. DOT documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 200 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
