Buyer decision table
| Custom requirement | What to confirm | Common quotation risk |
|---|---|---|
| End machining | Bearing seat size, thread, keyway, shoulder, tolerance | Missing dimensions delay production review. |
| Nut selection | Flange shape, hole pattern, preload, lubrication | Wrong nut style can block assembly. |
| Accuracy and backlash | C7/C5 target, preload request, inspection report | Over-specified accuracy increases cost and lead time. |
| Export packing | Length, rust prevention, wooden case, hard tube | Long screws need anti-bending support. |
RFQ checklist
- Drawing: PDF plus editable file if available, with all end machining dimensions visible.
- Working conditions: machine type, load direction, speed, stroke, duty cycle, and environment.
- Product details: diameter, lead, overall length, nut type, support unit plan, and accuracy grade.
- Quality documents: inspection report, material certificate, photos, or video confirmation if required.
- Commercial details: quantity, target delivery date, destination, packing standard, and payment terms.

FAQ
Can weimute quote without a complete drawing? Yes for early budget checks, but production quotation needs end machining dimensions and nut confirmation.
Should I ask for C5 accuracy by default? No. If the machine does not require ground precision, C7 rolled ball screws may reduce cost and lead time.
Minimum fields for a quotable RFQ
| Field | Example | Why it matters |

| Model | 2005 | Confirms diameter and lead |
| Overall/thread length | 850 / 600 mm | Defines material and machining scope |
| Nut and quantity | Single nut, 4 pcs | Calculates matching parts and batch size |
| End machining | Drawing or old part | Confirms process and inspection |
