Quality Audit Trail
Seat Force @ Installed Height InspectionREQUIRED
Ensure correct preload.
METHOD: Force GaugeFREQ: 100%ACC: +/- 5% of target
Open Force @ Open Height InspectionREQUIRED
Ensure correct peak load.
METHOD: Force GaugeFREQ: 100%
Bind Margin Clearance VerificationREQUIRED
Prevent catastrophic coil bind.
METHOD: Height GaugeFREQ: Sample per lot
Request cert tensile from supplierRECOMMENDED
Design used generic spec range; actual values ensure safety margin.
FREQ: One-time
