Relay for Subaru Forester: Stainless Steel
This relay for the Subaru Forester is specified around stainless 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 a specification nobody had written down, or packing that arrived crushed at the port. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Questions buyers ask
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.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. CCC documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 1000 pieces per line.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
