5、egistration and Conformity Assessment Process for Passenger Cars and Light Trucks Wheels RATIONALE This Recommended Practice provides an industry-approved and peer-reviewed document pertaining to the proper processes to (1) become a registered wheel supplier, (2) become an approved testing facility
6、or laboratory, and (3) obtain and maintain a declaration of conformity (or conformity assessment) for a wheel design when testing per SAE J2530. This Recommended Practice provides an efficient, competently conducted, market-oriented conformity assessment using common requirements. It also makes requ
7、irements and procedures open and transparent to all applicants with equal treatment, establishes the guidelines to make the process prompt and efficient, and ensures accurate and timely status on a given wheel regarding its conformity assessment. Lastly, it undertakes reasonable surveillance procedu
8、res to ensure continued conformity of the product to the herein stated requirements (See ANSI NCAP). The process and main elements of this conformity assessment program use the main elements of product certification and statistical methods used across the industry and well documented on several ISO
9、guides and standards. The systematic surveillance activities are the basis for maintaining the validity of the statement of certification (see ISO 17000). This SAE Recommended Practice is intended as a guide towards standard practices and is subject to change to keep pace with experience and technic
10、al advances. 1. SCOPE The SAE J2530 provides performance, sampling, test procedures, and marking requirements for wheels intended for normal highway use on passenger cars, light trucks, and multipurpose passenger vehicle. This Recommended Practice (which is separate from SAE J2530) specifies the wor
11、kflow of the Wheel Conformity Assessment Program. This program allows wheel manufacturers to register their product compliant to SAE J3010. The following items precede display of “SAE J3010” on any particular wheel design: a. Manufacturer registration All manufactures with the objective to pursue re
12、gistration, shall complete the registration as an individual manufacturer via the registrars website http:/wheeldb.registrar.domain. The registration includes company contact information, wheels produced, and company identification marks. b. Wheel design certification All wheel designs intended for
13、certification in accordance to this Recommended Practice, shall complete the application and submittal of test results via the above stated registrar website and in accordance to the procedures herewith. SAE INTERNATIONAL J3010 AUG2015 Page 2 of 20 c. Use of SAE J3010 Upon completion of the conformi
14、ty assessment process, the Program Manager will post the image, identification, and conformity report of the wheel design on the corresponding website. Use of the “SAE J3010” mark in any form is restricted only to wheels noted in the online version of the Comprehensive Wheel Registry (REG-CWR). d. W
15、heel test facility or laboratory accreditation registration All facilities or laboratories (first-, second-, or third-party) intended for wheel testing under the subject conformity assessment process, shall complete the application and submittal of test results via the above stated registrar website
16、 and in accordance to the procedures herewith. Accreditation from the registrar is required before providing valid test reports as part of this conformity assessment program. Manufacturers of wheels for passenger cars and light trucks, who advertise their products as “Conforms to SAE J3010“ and labe
17、l their product with the “SAE J3010“ mark, shall follow these procedures. Conformity assessment of products to SAE J3010 is voluntary; however, adherence to these procedures is mandatory for those advertising their products as “Conforming to SAE J3010.” Wheel designs using the “SAE J3010” mark meet
18、the requirements of SAE J2530. This conformity assessment program does not include other parameters like inner profile of the wheel and fitment to the brake or vehicle suspension, ventilation hole cooling efficiency, wheel attachment or length of thread engagement, etc., which are necessary for comp
19、lete fitment and suitability to vehicles. 2. REFERENCES 2.1 Applicable Documents The following publications form a part of this specification to the extent specified herein.

Recommended Best Practices for Importers of Motor Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Equipment 3. DEFINITIONS In addition to all definitions from applicable publication
27、s (see 2.1), the following definitions apply. 3.1 MANUFACTURER OR IMPORTER OF RECORD U.S. Customs term for the entity responsible for (1) ensuring the imported goods comply with local laws and regulations, (2) filing a completed duty entry and associated documents, and (3) paying the assessed import
28、 duties and other taxes on those goods. 3.2 REMANUFACTURER An identifiable and unique company that reworks or modifies an existing wheel including (1) refinishing, (2) subassembly, or (3) repairing to install back on a vehicle. 3.3 VEHICLE MANUFACTURER An identifiable and unique company, which manuf

41、 the wheel supplier to obtain a unique identification code for future submissions of wheel families for conformity assessment per SAE J3010. The addition of a given company on the wheel registry does not constitute conformance or endorsement of its products. The registration process is conducted onl
42、ine (see 1.a) and includes basic information regarding: a. New or additional registration b. Type of manufacturer (producer, remanufacturer, importer, or vehicle manufacturer) c. Type of vehicle for which wheels are supplied (passenger car, truck, buses, multipurpose, recreational, or trailer) d. Ve
43、hicle application for which wheels are supplied (on-road, off-road, military, or other) e. Wheel identification (brand in English language, country of origin, and example of wheel marking) f.

45、d submit online an Application for Wheel Manufacturers Registry. 5.2 Pay any fees due and obtain a valid registration number. 5.3 Conduct wheel sampling for testing and determine the number of samples for testing under dynamic cornering fatigue, dynamic radial fatigue, and impact (see SAE J2530). 5.
46、4 Submit to a registered testing facility or laboratory (see 1.d) test samples with markings, and SAE J3010 wheel identification report. 5.5 Coordinate the test execution at the testing facility or laboratory, respond diligently to any inquiry during testing with direct bearing on the test results,
47、and review the corresponding test reports for correctness and completeness. 5.6 Upon conformance to test requirements stated by the test facility or laboratory, request the testing facility or laboratory to submit online to the registrar the applicable forms (see Appendix A for examples). Alternativ
48、ely, the wheel supplier may choose to submit test results from equal or more stringent testing protocol. In the latter case, the supplier needs to provide the corresponding test conditions and acceptance criteria. NOTE: All test reports and documentation referring to a SAE standard or Recommended Pr
49、actice as part of the certification program shall indicate the revision date. e.g.,: SAE J175:2003, SAE J2530:2009, etc. 5.7 Request the registrar to update the REG-CWR with the information furnished on item 5.6. 5.8 Coordinate with the registrar and the testing facility or laboratory the surveillance tests and the 4-year recertification testing activities. 6.
