Forestry Tractor Tires Specification Example for Scooter Fleets: Drilled and Slotted
Forestry Tractor Tires Specification Example for Scooter Fleets: Drilled and Slotted
This is a worked specification for forestry tractor tires in a drilled and slotted 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 drilled and slotted version exists because the duty cycle on scooter fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually warranty claims traced back to a single lot.
Example specification
| Item | Forestry Tractor Tires |
|---|---|
| Application | Scooter Fleets |
| Version | Drilled and Slotted |
| Base material | Carbon Fibre Composite |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |

| Finish | as machined |
| MOQ | 2,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | DOT |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Carbon Fibre Composite, 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
- rubber vulcanisation
- surface grinding
- ultrasonic cleaning
- cold forging
- gravity casting
- shot blasting
Where this example applies
Programmes that run drilled and slotted most often specify this build for scooter fleets. Related applications include export programmes, fleet maintenance, agricultural trailers, boat trailers, assembly programmes.
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
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.
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.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 2000 pieces per line.
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.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
