Bias Tire Specification Example for Passenger Cars: Heavy Duty
Bias Tire Specification Example for Passenger Cars: Heavy Duty
This is a worked specification for bias tire in a heavy duty 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 heavy duty 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 lead time that slipped twice before bulk started.
Example specification
| Item | Bias Tire |
|---|---|
| Application | Passenger Cars |
| Version | Heavy Duty |
| Base material | Reinforced Nylon |
| Controlled dimensions | 5 key dimensions, recorded per lot |
| Tolerance band | ±0.1 mm |

| MOQ | 1,000 pieces per specification |
| Sampling | 14 working days, 5 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 — Reinforced Nylon, 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
- powder coating
- anodising
- gravity casting
- rubber vulcanisation
- sintering
- precision stamping
Where this example applies
Programmes that run heavy duty most often specify this build for passenger cars. Related applications include construction equipment, long-haul trucks, utility trailers, off-road bikes, passenger cars.
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
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 1000 pieces per line.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ISO/TS 16949 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
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.
