Timing Belt for Citroen C5 Aircross: Carbon Steel
This timing belt for the Citroen C5 Aircross is specified around carbon steel, which decides how it behaves in service far more than the part name does. We build to a written specification — base material, dimensions, finish and packing — and hold that specification on file so every reorder reproduces the approved piece.
The usual reason a programme changes supplier is not unit price. It is packing that arrived crushed at the port, or a specification nobody had written down. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Questions buyers ask
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 2000 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 2000 pieces per line.
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.
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.
