Hydraulic Engine Mount Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Fixed Type
Hydraulic Engine Mount Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Fixed Type
This is a worked specification for hydraulic engine mount in a fixed type 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 fixed type version exists because the duty cycle on fleet maintenance is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually premature wear on the first batch.
Example specification
| Item | Hydraulic Engine Mount |
|---|---|
| Application | Fleet Maintenance |
| Version | Fixed Type |
| Base material | Tempered Glass |
| Controlled dimensions | 4 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.5 mm |
| Finish | anodised |
| MOQ | 2,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 7 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 — Tempered Glass, 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
- heat treatment
- anodising
- gravity casting
- die casting
- precision stamping
- robot welding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run fixed type most often specify this build for fleet maintenance. Related applications include scooter fleets, city buses, light trucks, assembly programmes, dealership service.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 2.5 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 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 2000 pieces per line.
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.
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.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
