Cylinder Head for Ford Transit: Sintered Metal
This cylinder head for the Ford Transit 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 a specification nobody had written down, or lead time that slipped twice before bulk started. 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.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the REACH-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 7 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
