AC Receiver Drier Specification Example for Racing Teams: Sealed Unit
AC Receiver Drier Specification Example for Racing Teams: Sealed Unit
This is a worked specification for ac receiver drier in a sealed unit 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 sealed unit version exists because the duty cycle on racing teams 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.

Processes involved
- rubber vulcanisation
- injection moulding
- assembly line testing
- anodising
- heat treatment
- shot blasting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run sealed unit most often specify this build for racing teams. Related applications include aftermarket retail, off-road bikes, export programmes, long-haul trucks, trailer axles.
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
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the DOT-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. DOT documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 2000 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 2000 pieces per line.
