What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

MOQ starts from 50 - 100 pieces for most drain pumps, magnetrons and motor parts, and from 200 pieces for control boards and sensors. Mixed-model trial orders are accepted to help you test the market before scaling.

How long is the lead time?

Stock items ship in 3 - 7 days after payment confirmation. Made-to-order batches take 15 - 25 days depending on quantity and packaging requirements. Peak season (Aug - Oct) may add 5 - 7 days.

Do you support OEM packaging and labeling?

Yes. We provide neutral packaging, custom color boxes, your logo printing and barcode labeling. OEM packaging usually requires 500 - 1,000 pieces per model and 5 - 7 extra days for printing.

What warranty do you offer on spare parts?

Standard warranty is 12 months from shipment date for motors, magnetrons and control boards, and 6 months for consumable items such as carbon brushes and filters. Defective rate above the agreed threshold is replaced or credited in the next order.

Which shipping methods do you handle?

Express (DHL/FedEx/UPS) for samples and small parcels, air freight for urgent 50 - 300 kg orders, and sea LCL or FCL for wholesale volumes. We support FOB Shenzhen, FOB Ningbo and CIF terms, and can consolidate multiple categories into one container.

What are your payment terms?

T/T with 30% deposit and 70% balance before shipment is standard. PayPal and Western Union are accepted for sample orders. For repeat buyers we can discuss O/A terms after several successful shipments.

Are these original brand parts?

No. All items are compatible aftermarket replacement parts. Brand names such as Midea, Gree, Haier, Little Swan, LG, Samsung, Whirlpool and Panasonic are used only to describe fitment. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.

Can you match parts by OE number or photo?

Yes. Send the OE number, the nameplate photo of the appliance, or a photo of the old part with dimensions to sales88@ggatc.com or WhatsApp +86 181 5864 9251. Our team replies with matched models, price and availability within 24 hours.

Do you provide samples?

Samples are available. Sample cost is refundable against a bulk order above the agreed quantity. Buyer pays courier freight, or we add it to the sample invoice.

What documents can you provide for customs clearance?

Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin (Form A / Form E where applicable) and CE or RoHS declarations for eligible items. Tell us your import requirements when confirming the order.

Drain Pumps Buying Guide: Selection Points, OE Cross Reference, MOQ and FOB Terms

Drain pumps are the highest turnover wear part in washing machine after sales. A wrong pump means water stays in the tub, so importers and repair shops should match by electrical rating and port geometry first, and by brand name second. This guide covers the selection points, the OE cross reference workflow and the commercial terms we use on every drain pump quotation.

Selection Points for Drain Pumps

Parameter	What to Check	Why It Matters
Voltage and frequency	220-240V AC 50Hz versus 110-120V 60Hz	Wrong voltage burns the winding in minutes
Power rating	18W to 40W typical for household pumps	Underrated pumps stall on full tubs
Inlet and outlet diameter	25 / 32 / 38 mm inlet, 20 / 22 / 24 mm outlet	Hose mismatch causes leaks and air lock
Mounting style	3 screw flange, twist lock or rubber grommet	Decides whether the pump fits the base pan
Impeller type	Open vane versus enclosed vortex	Enclosed vortex tolerates lint and coins better

Askoll type synchronous pumps and universal replacement pumps cover most front load and top load machines. When your market mixes brands, stock two or three universal SKUs instead of ten brand specific ones.

OE Number Cross Reference Method

Read the OE number from the pump body label, not from the machine nameplate alone.
Photograph the label at an angle to reveal embossed characters worn by water exposure.
Record coil resistance, typical 150 to 220 ohm for a 30W pump, and compare with the datasheet.
Measure mounting hole spacing with a caliper and note the connector pin count and terminal width.
Send the OE number and photos to the supplier and ask for a matched model sheet before bulk ordering.

MOQ and FOB Terms Explained

MOQ means minimum order quantity. For drain pumps our standard MOQ is 100 pieces per model, and trial orders start from 50 pieces with mixed models allowed in one shipment. FOB means free on board: the quoted USD price covers goods, export clearance and loading at the China port, while sea freight, insurance and import duties are on the buyer side. Every quotation states the FOB port, usually Shenzhen or Ningbo, and tiered prices for 1-4, 5-19 and 20+ pieces are published on each product page as reference values subject to written confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question	Answer
Can one pump cover multiple brands?	Universal 220V pumps cover 12 to 25 models across six or more brands when port diameters match.
What warranty applies?	12 months from shipment date, with powered function test before dispatch.
How fast are samples?	Samples ship in 1 to 2 days and arrive in 4 to 7 days by express courier.
Is OEM packaging available?	Yes, neutral cartons are free; custom color boxes start from 500 pieces per model.

Conclusion: match drain pumps by voltage, power, port diameter and mounting style, verify with the OE number workflow, and start with a 50 piece trial order before container volume. Browse the drain pumps category for live stock, tiered FOB reference prices and MOQ on every listing, or send your OE list to sales88@ggatc.com or WhatsApp +86 181 5864 9251 for a matched quotation within 24 hours.
