Vehicle Speedometer Tachometer Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Budget Line
Vehicle Speedometer Tachometer Specification Example for Workshop Replacements: Budget Line
This is a worked specification for vehicle speedometer tachometer in a budget line 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 budget line 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 supplier who changed material without saying so.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Cast Iron, 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
- robot welding
- electroplating
- ultrasonic cleaning
- assembly line testing
- sintering
- injection moulding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run budget line most often specify this build for workshop replacements. Related applications include off-road bikes, workshop replacements, dealership service, emergency vehicles, delivery vans.
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
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. SGS documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the SGS-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
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.
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.
Share a sample or a drawing and we will quote against a written specification, not against a photograph.
