Racing Crankshaft Components Specification Example for Trailer Axles: Touring Version
Racing Crankshaft Components Specification Example for Trailer Axles: Touring Version
This is a worked specification for racing crankshaft components in a touring 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 touring version version exists because the duty cycle on trailer axles 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.

Example specification
| Item | Racing Crankshaft Components |
|---|---|
| Application | Trailer Axles |
| Version | Touring Version |
| Base material | Semi-Metallic Compound |
| Controlled dimensions | 4 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.2 mm |
| Finish | powder coated |
| MOQ | 3,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 5 days per revision |
| Compliance | CCC |
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
- electroplating
- ultrasonic cleaning
- heat treatment
- assembly line testing
- rubber vulcanisation
- sintering
Where this example applies
Programmes that run touring version most often specify this build for trailer axles. Related applications include aftermarket retail, racing teams, scooter fleets, camper conversions, city buses.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 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 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.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
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.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
