Forklift Solid Tires Specification Example for Courier Fleets: Waterproof Version
Forklift Solid Tires Specification Example for Courier Fleets: Waterproof Version
This is a worked specification for forklift solid tires in a waterproof 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 waterproof version version exists because the duty cycle on courier fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually reorders that did not match the approved sample.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Anodised Aluminium, 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
- sintering
- surface grinding
- CNC machining
- electroplating
- rubber vulcanisation
- assembly line testing
Where this example applies
Programmes that run waterproof version most often specify this build for courier fleets. Related applications include rental motorcycles, emergency vehicles, city buses, dealership service, long-haul 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.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 500 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
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.
