Hydraulic Piston Specification Example for Rental Motorcycles: OEM Replacement
Hydraulic Piston Specification Example for Rental Motorcycles: OEM Replacement
This is a worked specification for hydraulic piston in a oem replacement 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 oem replacement version exists because the duty cycle on rental motorcycles 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 Piston |
|---|---|
| Application | Rental Motorcycles |
| Version | OEM Replacement |

| Compliance | ECE R90 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Reinforced Nylon, 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
- CNC machining
- shot blasting
- gravity casting
- ultrasonic cleaning
- injection moulding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run oem replacement most often specify this build for rental motorcycles. Related applications include light trucks, off-road bikes, emergency vehicles, long-haul trucks, 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
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.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ECE R90 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 7 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
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 specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
