RFQ Checklist for Custom Molded Pet Product Parts
Prepare a usable quote package for a pet bowl, playpen connector or leash grip. Define mating geometry, use conditions, acceptance checks and sample quantities.
List the part and deliverable by revision
State whether you need a plastic injection mold, molded samples or production parts. Pair the latest CAD with a drawing that marks cosmetic areas and critical dimensions. If one assembly needs several parts, list each item separately so a quote can assign tooling, materials and samples to the correct revision.
For feeding bowls, specify how the complete set is used
A bowl with a removable base needs a fit check in addition to the bowl dimensions. State the feed or water contact, cleaning method and whether the parts stack for storage or shipping. If a test or material declaration is a purchase requirement, identify it in the RFQ and agree which finished configuration the evidence must cover.
For playpen connectors, supply assembled and separated views
Show the approach direction, fully engaged position and user release action. For a snap fit, treat assembly effort and retention as different checks. Include representative panels and describe the planned repeat-assembly and environmental conditions.
For leash grips, mark the hand-contact and structural interfaces
Give the hand clearance, edge and seam appearance target, then show how the strap connects and carries force. If the grip uses a soft layer, identify the exact base material and plan how to check attachment after use. Agree whole-assembly checks for any structural requirement.
