Car AC Compressor Specification Example for Passenger Cars: OEM Replacement
Car AC Compressor Specification Example for Passenger Cars: OEM Replacement
This is a worked specification for car ac compressor in a oem replacement 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 oem replacement version exists because the duty cycle on passenger cars 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.
Example specification
| Item | Car AC Compressor |
|---|---|
| Application | Passenger Cars |
| Version | OEM Replacement |
| Base material | Nylon 66 |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Finish | as machined |
| MOQ | 1,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 5 days per revision |
| Compliance | E-mark |
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
- surface grinding
- sintering
- precision stamping
- gravity casting
- injection moulding
- cold forging
Where this example applies
Programmes that run oem replacement most often specify this build for passenger cars. Related applications include courier fleets, three-wheelers, trailer axles, passenger cars, camper conversions.
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
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the E-mark-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 1000 pieces per line.
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.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
