Integrated Rear Lights Specification Example for Long-Haul Trucks: Lightweight Version
Integrated Rear Lights Specification Example for Long-Haul Trucks: Lightweight Version
This is a worked specification for integrated rear lights in a lightweight 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 lightweight 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 lead time that slipped twice before bulk started.
Example specification
| Item | Integrated Rear Lights |
|---|---|
| Application | Long-Haul Trucks |
| Version | Lightweight Version |
| Base material | Magnesium Alloy |
| Controlled dimensions | 4 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.2 mm |
| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 200 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 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 — Magnesium Alloy, 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
- powder coating
- sintering
- gravity casting
- heat treatment
- injection moulding
- CNC machining
Where this example applies
Programmes that run lightweight version most often specify this build for long-haul trucks. Related applications include utility trailers, passenger cars, light trucks, dealership service, scooter fleets.
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.
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 10 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.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
