What should be included in the first RFQ email?

Include drawing files, graphite grade or operating conditions, critical tolerances, quantity plan, destination, and export document requirements.

How quickly can we get an actionable response?

Complete graphite RFQs are easier to review within 1-2 business days when drawings, material assumptions, quantity, and destination are included.

Can we discuss export compliance before PO?

Yes. Graphite material category, destination, end use, and document expectations should be reviewed before production release.

RFQ Checklist Before You Send

Required Item	Example	Why It Helps
Graphite part type	Mold / EDM electrode / furnace fixture / wear part	Quickly routes the RFQ to the right machining and material review path.
Material grade	Fine-grain / isostatic / high-purity graphite	Prevents quoting by dimensions alone when purity, strength, or temperature matters.
Drawing and tolerances	2D drawing, STEP file, critical dimensions, surface finish	Avoids ambiguity around brittle graphite features and inspection expectations.
Quantity plan	Prototype qty + repeat forecast	Improves lead-time and pricing accuracy.
Destination and terms	Country, end use, certificates, requested ship date	Aligns packaging, documents, and shipping plan early.

Sample Alignment: Inspection method (CMM), packing expectations, and courier dispatch.
Production & Export: Volume CNC milling, MOFCOM export paperwork (if applicable), and final delivery planning.

Common Clarification Questions

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

Yes. Send sketches, photos, target material, operating conditions, and quantity. Mark pending items clearly so we can return a provisional quote scope.

How should we handle drawing changes after sample approval?

Use revision-controlled drawings with effective lot, changed dimensions, and inspection impact agreed by both teams.

Can we align on graphite export documents before production?

Yes. Please list destination, end use, material category, and required document types in the RFQ stage so they are included in delivery planning.

Suggested First RFQ Email Format
