Cylinder Head for Subaru Outback: Sintered Metal
This cylinder head for the Subaru Outback 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 premature wear on the first batch, or a supplier who changed material without saying so. Both are specification problems, and both are preventable.

Questions buyers ask
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ISO/TS 16949 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.
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.
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.
