What do I need to provide APR in order to receive pricing on a custom part?

Please email us full technical and material specifications, quantities required, and any special requirements such as Level III PPAP documentation or REACH compliance.

What file formats does APR require for part specifications?

If available, please send drawings and specifications in both image (PDF) and CAD (IGES, DWG or STEP) formats. Our system also supports JPEG and TIFF image files.

What is the lead time on custom parts?

Lead times vary according the nature and complexity of the part. When we quote pricing on your custom part, we will specify approximate lead times. In general, we provide first article samples within 5 to 6 weeks of receipt of your tooling purchase order. Once sample approval is received, production lead times are approximately 10 to 14 weeks.
