Control Arm for Subaru Outback: Cast Iron
This control arm for the Subaru Outback is specified around cast iron, 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 a supplier who changed material without saying so, or documentation that arrived after the container shipped. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Questions buyers ask
What is the minimum order quantity?
The standard MOQ is 3000 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 3000 pieces per line.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. CCC documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
