Idler Pulley for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter: Semi-Metallic Compound
This idler pulley for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is specified around semi-metallic compound, 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 warranty claims traced back to a single lot, 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 200 pieces per specification. Mixed sizes inside one shipment are accepted once the total reaches that figure.
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.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 200 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 RoHS-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Send the part number, the annual volume and the target market, and we will come back with a specification and a sampling plan.
