Forged Rim Specification Example for Long-Haul Trucks: Waterproof Version
Forged Rim Specification Example for Long-Haul Trucks: Waterproof Version
This is a worked specification for forged rim 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 long-haul trucks is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a fitment that looked right on paper and failed on the bench.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Nylon 66, 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
- electroplating
- powder coating
- heat treatment
- anodising
- CNC machining
- shot blasting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run waterproof version most often specify this build for long-haul trucks. Related applications include boat trailers, aftermarket retail, assembly programmes, long-haul trucks, agricultural trailers.
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. CCC documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the CCC-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 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
