Compressor Clutch for BMW X5: Magnesium Alloy
This compressor clutch for the BMW X5 is specified around magnesium alloy, 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 lead time that slipped twice before bulk started, or premature wear on the first batch. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Fitment notes
Confirm the fitment against the VIN or the frame number before ordering; two model years often share a name and not a part.

The specification above is the one most often ordered for roadside assistance. Related applications include passenger transport, construction sites, mountain roads, rental fleets, heavy load hauling.
Quality and packing
- In-line inspection with AQL 1.5 sampling on every lot.
- Dimensional report issued against the approved drawing.
- Carton marking and barcode to your specification.
- Golden sample retained at the factory as the reorder reference.
Questions buyers ask
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.
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.
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. REACH documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
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.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
