Brake System Sensor Specification Example for Agricultural Trailers: Load Rated Version
Brake System Sensor Specification Example for Agricultural Trailers: Load Rated Version
This is a worked specification for brake system sensor in a load rated 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 load rated version version exists because the duty cycle on agricultural trailers 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 | Brake System Sensor |
|---|---|
| Application | Agricultural Trailers |
| Version | Load Rated Version |
| Base material | Stainless Steel |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.2 mm |
| Finish | as machined |
| MOQ | 3,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 7 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | SAE J431 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Stainless 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
- gravity casting
- surface grinding
- ultrasonic cleaning
- heat treatment
- anodising
- injection moulding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run load rated version most often specify this build for agricultural trailers. Related applications include camper conversions, off-road bikes, light trucks, assembly programmes, emergency vehicles.
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
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. SAE J431 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 3000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the SAE J431-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
