Motorbike Chain Lock Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Long Life Version
Motorbike Chain Lock Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Long Life Version
This is a worked specification for motorbike chain lock in a long life 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 long life version version exists because the duty cycle on workshop replacements 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.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Carbon 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
- laser cutting
- sintering
- CNC machining
- anodising
- precision stamping
- electroplating
Where this example applies
Programmes that run long life version most often specify this build for workshop replacements. Related applications include trailer axles, aftermarket retail, emergency vehicles, assembly programmes, light trucks.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 4.0 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 SGS-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. SGS documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
