Racing Crankshaft Components Specification Example for Three-Wheelers: Load Rated Version
Racing Crankshaft Components Specification Example for Three-Wheelers: Load Rated Version
This is a worked specification for racing crankshaft components 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 three-wheelers is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a supplier who changed material without saying so.

Example specification
| Item | Racing Crankshaft Components |
|---|---|
| Application | Three-Wheelers |
| Version | Load Rated Version |
| Base material | Semi-Metallic Compound |
| Controlled dimensions | 3 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.05 mm |
| Finish | powder coated |
| MOQ | 500 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 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 — Semi-Metallic Compound, 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
- ultrasonic cleaning
- CNC machining
- precision stamping
- powder coating
- robot welding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run load rated version most often specify this build for three-wheelers. Related applications include workshop replacements, delivery vans, racing teams, emergency vehicles, dealership service.
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
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.
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.
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.
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 part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
