Plastic Housing: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.90 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.22 at volume, on a typical 15-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

| 10,000–24,999 units | $0.38 |

What moves the price
For plastic housing, the drivers are sensor type, front or rear fitment, connector style, wire length, tone ring compatibility, wire gauge, relay rating, connector type — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For automotive plastic housings, price moves most with resin grade, tooling complexity, waterproofing/sealing requirements, and whether the part is a simple molded shell or an integrated housing with printed/assembled features. The clearest real-world wholesale signals come from China-facing OEM marketplaces and injection-molding suppliers, where custom automotive plastic parts commonly quote from roughly $0.15 to $3.50 per piece at 500-1,000+ unit MOQs, with lower prices at higher volumes and longer runs. US-facing trade suppliers are more realistic for landed-equivalent benchmarking than for precise part-only factory pricing, because freight, duties, and tooling are usually separated from the unit quote.
