Forged Rim Specification Example for Emergency Vehicles: Touring Version
Forged Rim Specification Example for Emergency Vehicles: Touring Version
This is a worked specification for forged rim 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 emergency vehicles 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.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Silicone, 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
- surface grinding
- shot blasting
- injection moulding
- cold forging
- die casting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run touring version most often specify this build for emergency vehicles. Related applications include passenger cars, scooter fleets, utility trailers, off-road bikes, long-haul trucks.
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
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 3000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
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 testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. E-mark documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Ask for the current catalogue and the specification sheet for this line.
