What should be included in the first RFQ email?

Include product type, material, OD/ID/wall, length, drawing revision, laser pattern, surface finish, documentation needs, quantity plan, and destination.

How quickly can we get an actionable response?

Most complete RFQs receive first-round engineering feedback and quote direction within one business day.

Can we discuss custom OEM requirements before PO?

Yes. We encourage pre-PO engineering clarification to reduce prototype and mass-production risk.

RFQ Checklist Before You Send

Required Item	Example	Why It Helps
Target component family	Hypotube / nitinol tube / marker band / snake bone tube	Quickly narrows material, process route, and quote range.
Tube dimensions	OD / ID / wall / length / tolerance	Prevents fit, friction, and assembly failures in catheter components.
Laser and finish requirements	Slot width, kerf, bridge width, electropolishing, passivation	Controls burr risk, flexibility, and surface quality before sample release.
Quantity plan	Prototype qty + annual forecast	Improves lead-time and pricing accuracy.
Destination and terms	Country, Incoterm, requested ship date	Aligns packaging, documents, and shipping plan early.

What Happens After Inquiry

Engineering pre-check for drawing, material, tolerance, laser pattern, and documentation completeness.
Quote direction with lead-time assumptions and risk notes.
Sample scope alignment and validation acceptance criteria.
Production and delivery planning for approved programs.

Common Clarification Questions

Can I send a rough requirement before final drawings are ready?

Yes. Send your current assumptions first, then mark pending items clearly so we can return a provisional quote scope.

How should we handle engineering changes after sample approval?

Use a revision-controlled change request with effective lot and impact scope agreed by both teams.

Can we align on compliance files before mass production?

Yes. Please list required document types in the RFQ stage so they are included in validation and delivery planning.

Suggested First RFQ Email Format

If your team needs a fast start, use this structure in the first email. It improves quote precision and reduces clarification cycles.

Project background and application scenario.
Component target: product type, material, OD/ID/wall, length, tolerance, and intended application.
Laser and finish requirements: shaft, flange, connector, drawing revision.
Commercial scope: prototype quantity, annual forecast, destination, and target ship date.

What You Should Review Before Sending RFQ

Products for hypotube, nitinol tube, marker band, and snake bone tube selection.
Applications for catheter, stent delivery, endoscope, and interventional-device constraints.
Capabilities for design collaboration, quality controls, and delivery process.
Resources & Guides for practical checklists you can copy into buyer workflows.
About Us for ISO 13485-oriented supplier qualification and documentation planning.

Typical First Response Package

Output	Purpose	Buyer Action
Component and process direction	Narrow viable material, laser cutting, finishing, and inspection assumptions.	Confirm baseline component path before cost-detail discussion.
RFQ clarification list	Close data gaps that affect pricing and lead-time accuracy.	Return missing values and drawing references in one reply.
Validation recommendation	Define sample inspection scope, burr criteria, dimensional checks, and documentation for technical sign-off.	Align internal engineering and procurement gates before PO.
