Portable Vehicle Cooler Specification Example for Passenger Cars: Quick Fit Version
Portable Vehicle Cooler Specification Example for Passenger Cars: Quick Fit Version
This is a worked specification for portable vehicle cooler in a quick fit 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 quick fit version version exists because the duty cycle on passenger cars is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually a fitment that looked right on paper and failed on the bench.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Bronze, 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
- die casting
- sintering
- shot blasting
- powder coating
- assembly line testing
- surface grinding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run quick fit version most often specify this build for passenger cars. Related applications include delivery vans, agricultural trailers, three-wheelers, assembly programmes, 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
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the IATF 16949-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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. IATF 16949 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 500 pieces per line.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
