Engine Performance Additive Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Upgraded Version
Engine Performance Additive Specification Example for Fleet Maintenance: Upgraded Version
This is a worked specification for engine performance additive in a upgraded 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 upgraded version version exists because the duty cycle on fleet maintenance is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a supplier who changed material without saying so.
Example specification
| Item | Engine Performance Additive |
|---|---|
| Application | Fleet Maintenance |
| Version | Upgraded Version |
| Base material | ABS Plastic |
| Controlled dimensions | 6 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.1 mm |
| Finish | zinc plated |
| MOQ | 500 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 5 days per revision |
| 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 — ABS Plastic, 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
- cold forging
- rubber vulcanisation
- heat treatment
- gravity casting
- CNC machining
- injection moulding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run upgraded version most often specify this build for fleet maintenance. Related applications include trailer axles, boat trailers, rental motorcycles, three-wheelers, camper conversions.
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 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 the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the ECE R90-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
