港から港まで、2026年の船社公表スケジュールに基づく日数です。直航サービスと積替えありのサービスでは1週間以上異なるため、確約ではなく目安の範囲として示しています。通関および内陸輸送は別途必要です。
アジア～欧州航路では、2026年に船社の対応が分かれています。スエズ運河に復帰した船社もあれば、依然としてアフリカ回りの船社もあります。差は10～14日となるため、両方の数値を表示しています。
供給条件
Full container
One twenty- or forty-foot container. This is the cheapest way to move goods per unit: the freight is divided over the whole load and the container travels from the works to the port of destination without being opened.
A twenty-foot container is usually filled by weight and a forty-foot one by volume, so heavy adapters and light items such as plugs, caps and ferrules are worth planning into the same load.
Groupage, from three pallets
Suitable for a first order and for topping up sizes that sell slowly. The goods are consolidated with other shipments and travel in a shared container.
Allow a few days more than the figures on the map: consolidation before departure and unpacking of the shared container at destination both take time.
Samples
Up to ten samples free of charge. It is worth ordering them before the first batch: a sample shows the quality of the thread, the accuracy of the cone and the thickness of the coating, and it can be screwed together with the mating part already on your machine.
Delivery terms
EXW Zhuji, FOB Ningbo or Yiwu. The term fixes the point at which cost and risk pass to you, so it is agreed in the order before production starts.
Production time
The lead time depends on the composition and the size of the order far more than on the number of line items. A twenty-foot container takes 45 to 60 days on average.
Sizes that are always in production ship sooner; a batch that needs its own forging or a non-standard coating sets the pace for the whole order.
Payment
30% of the order value is paid in advance when the order is confirmed; the balance is paid before shipment, once the goods are ready and inspected. For regular customers the terms are discussed separately.
