Leather Steering Wheel Grip Specification Example for Light Trucks: Load Rated Version
Leather Steering Wheel Grip Specification Example for Light Trucks: Load Rated Version
This is a worked specification for leather steering wheel grip in a load rated 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 load rated version version exists because the duty cycle on light trucks is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually reorders that did not match the approved sample.

- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.

Processes involved
- anodising
- CNC machining
- gravity casting
- heat treatment
- sintering
- cold forging
Where this example applies
Programmes that run load rated version most often specify this build for light trucks. Related applications include passenger cars, city buses, racing teams, three-wheelers, light trucks.
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
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 1000 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 ECE R90-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 1000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
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.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
