Specification on file
Once approved, the specification sheet, accessory list and packaging artwork are kept so a reorder does not restart the process.
Consumables and workshop tools bought on a replenishment cycle by tire shops, workshops and distributors. This range fails on the details nobody photographs: compound shelf life, fitting lists, torque values and carton weight limits.
Grouped the way a tire bay actually consumes them.
| Group | Typical items | Fields that decide the price |
|---|---|---|
| Puncture repair | Repair strings and plugs, patches, cement, insertion tools | Compound and adhesion grade, string diameter and length, cure time, shelf life, packaging seal |
| Valves & TPMS | Rubber and metal valves, valve cores, caps, TPMS service kits | Fitting list, rubber grade, nickel plating, torque spec, sensor family compatibility |
| Mounting & balancing | Tyres irons, bead breakers, wheel weights, balancing accessories | Tool steel grade, handle material, weight type and adhesive, tolerance, carton weight |
| Care consumables | Bead sealer, rim protectors, inflators, pressure gauges, gloves | Volume and fill accuracy, gauge class and calibration, material compatibility, labelling |
A repair string with a two-year shelf life in a sealed bag becomes unserviceable within months in a hot workshop. We write the production date, stated shelf life and storage condition on the label, so your customer can verify it.
Valve and TPMS kits sold as universal generate returns. Send the sensor family or vehicle set you serve, and the fitting list is confirmed item by item.
Heavy tools and light consumables in the same container need different carton construction. Carton weight and pallet pattern are settled with the specification, not at loading.
Pressure gauges and inflators carry an accuracy class. If your market inspects it, it must be stated and documented, not assumed from the sample.

Most of this range is bought again, so the first order is really about creating a record that makes the second order fast.
Once approved, the specification sheet, accessory list and packaging artwork are kept so a reorder does not restart the process.
Consumables, tools and valves can be combined into one carton plan. Send the mix at specification stage so weights and pallet pattern work.
Workshop supply usually ships neutral; distributor supply usually ships retail-ready with barcode and printed insert. The choice is fixed before print.
Shelf life depends on the compound and the packaging seal. Ask for the production date, the stated shelf life and the storage condition on the label; unsealed strings stored in warm workshops lose adhesion well before the printed date.
Yes for service kits. Send the vehicle or sensor family you serve and we confirm the fitting list, rubber grade and torque specification before quoting, because a generic kit that fits nothing is the most common return reason in this category.
Usually yes. Submit the SKU and quantity mix at specification stage so carton weights, pallet pattern and loading sequence are planned; heavy tools and light consumables need different carton construction.
A mixed basket is normal in this category. Include quantities per item and we reply with what can ship together and what needs its own carton plan.
