Replacement Windshields Specification Example for Long-Haul Trucks: Upgraded Version
Replacement Windshields Specification Example for Long-Haul Trucks: Upgraded Version
This is a worked specification for replacement windshields in a upgraded 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 upgraded version version exists because the duty cycle on long-haul trucks is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually lead time that slipped twice before bulk started.
Example specification
| Item | Replacement Windshields |
|---|---|
| Application | Long-Haul Trucks |
| Version | Upgraded Version |
| Base material | Kevlar Composite |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Finish | powder coated |
| MOQ | 500 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 5 days per revision |
| Compliance | SGS |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Kevlar Composite, 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
- precision stamping
- surface grinding
- gravity casting
- electroplating
- assembly line testing
- powder coating
Where this example applies
Programmes that run upgraded version most often specify this build for long-haul trucks. Related applications include scooter fleets, courier fleets, utility trailers, long-haul 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
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.
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.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 500 pieces per line.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. SGS documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Ask for the current catalogue and the specification sheet for this line.
