Auto Oil Separator Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Standard Replacement
Auto Oil Separator Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Standard Replacement
This is a worked specification for auto oil separator in a standard 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 standard replacement version exists because the duty cycle on workshop replacements 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 | Auto Oil Separator |
|---|---|
| Application | Workshop Replacements |
| Version | Standard Replacement |

| MOQ | 2,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 10 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | ISO/TS 16949 |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Tempered Glass, 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
- powder coating
- sintering
- laser cutting
- gravity casting
- ultrasonic cleaning
Where this example applies
Programmes that run standard replacement most often specify this build for workshop replacements. Related applications include racing teams, long-haul trucks, assembly programmes, construction equipment, boat trailers.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 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.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ISO/TS 16949-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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.
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.
