Strut-Type Shock Absorber Specification Example for Dealership Service: Racing Spec
Strut-Type Shock Absorber Specification Example for Dealership Service: Racing Spec
This is a worked specification for strut-type shock absorber in a racing spec 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 racing spec version exists because the duty cycle on dealership service is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually warranty claims traced back to a single lot.

Example specification
| Item | Strut-Type Shock Absorber |
|---|---|
| Application | Dealership Service |
| Version | Racing Spec |
| Base material | Brass |
| Controlled dimensions | 5 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Compliance | RoHS |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Brass, 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
- ultrasonic cleaning
- sintering
- powder coating
- CNC machining
- heat treatment
- assembly line testing
Where this example applies
Programmes that run racing spec most often specify this build for dealership service. Related applications include scooter fleets, boat trailers, passenger cars, trailer axles, construction equipment.
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
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the RoHS-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. RoHS documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 2000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Tell us the model, the fitment and the quantity and we will hold a production slot for you.
