Define the part and its interfaces
Link the closest catalogue product if one exists, then mark the differences you need. Include a dimensioned drawing with units and a revision identifier. For a mating component, provide its dimensions or drawing too. A photograph can support the brief, but it does not replace dimensions needed to manufacture a part.
For a pickup ring, for example, the outside shape, pickup opening, screw centres, thickness and mounting-surface shape are separate requirements. Identify which dimensions must remain unchanged.
Include the information needed for a quote
Use the contact page to send the intended application and initial brief. Confirm a suitable way to share drawings or samples as part of the enquiry.
Material and finish requirements, including which surfaces must remain uncoated.
Critical dimensions, thread specifications and required tolerances.
Prototype quantity, possible production quantity and target delivery date.
Any marking, packaging or inspection requirements.
The mating parts and checks you will use to accept a sample.
Agree the sample and production terms explicitly
Ask for written confirmation of feasibility, minimum quantity, price, tooling or sample costs, lead time and delivery terms for your specific brief. Do not assume that an existing retail finish, material or geometry can be supplied in every custom combination.
Before a production commitment, agree the drawing revision, sample approval process, inspection scope and how dimensional or cosmetic issues will be handled. Batch sizes, inspection coverage and packaging are project terms to confirm, not universal promises.
