Webb receives trailer hub trademark

Webb Wheel Products has received a Federal Trademark Registration for its 2023 trailer hub. The company previously has received trademarks for its brake drum part numbers.

The company said it would periodically audit all aftermarket distribution channels to make sure Webb part number brands are authentic.

“In addition to the very important issue of protecting our brand, Webb sees it as our responsibility to protect the end user from inferior wheel end components that could ultimately increase their cost of ownership and impact vehicle safety,” said Todd Manson, vp of sales & marketing for Webb’s aftermarket business unit. “By registering our part numbers, purchasers of these components can be assured that they actually receive quality products manufactured by Webb.”
