Asymmetric Tread Pattern Tire Specification Example for Assembly Programmes: Off-Road Version
Asymmetric Tread Pattern Tire Specification Example for Assembly Programmes: Off-Road Version
This is a worked specification for asymmetric tread pattern tire in a off-road 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 off-road version version exists because the duty cycle on assembly programmes is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually packing that arrived crushed at the port.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — PU Leather, 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
- anodising
- powder coating
- cold forging
- CNC machining
- gravity casting
- shot blasting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run off-road version most often specify this build for assembly programmes. Related applications include workshop replacements, emergency vehicles, scooter fleets, fleet maintenance, city buses.
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. SAE J431 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 500 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 500 pieces per line.
