Forestry Tractor Tires Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Drilled and Slotted
Forestry Tractor Tires Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: 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 workshop replacements 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.
Example specification
| Item | Forestry Tractor Tires |
|---|---|
| Application | Workshop Replacements |
| Version | Drilled and Slotted |
| Base material | Powder Coated Steel |
| Controlled dimensions | 5 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.1 mm |
| Finish | powder coated |
| MOQ | 1,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 7 working days, 3 days per revision |
| Compliance | E-mark |
How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Powder Coated Steel, 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
- laser cutting
- robot welding
- heat treatment
- surface grinding
- cold forging
- rubber vulcanisation
Where this example applies
Programmes that run drilled and slotted most often specify this build for workshop replacements. Related applications include courier fleets, export programmes, passenger cars, camper conversions, utility trailers.
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 testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. E-mark 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 1000 pieces per line.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 7 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 1000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
