Gear Knob for Toyota Hilux: Sintered Metal
This gear knob for the Toyota Hilux is specified around sintered metal, 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 inconsistent hardness between lots, or packing that arrived crushed at the port. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Questions buyers ask
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 10 working days, and each revision round adds about 3 days once you have seen the first piece.
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.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ECE R90 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.
