Offers information on wheel end specifying and maintenance practices.

The OEM Business Unit of Webb Wheel, a manufacturer of hubs, brake drums and rotors for medium and heavy duty trucks, trailers and buses, has launched a quarterly newsletter containing useful information about wheel end specifying and maintenance practices.  

The one-page newsletter will include useful unbiased technical advice for maintenance management, technicians, drivers and others who interface with wheel end components on their trucks and trailers. 

The inaugural issue published in February 2014 gives guidelines for brake drum replacement. Additionally, this issue introduces Webb fleet technical/sales personnel with contact information.  

Webb has been supplying wheel end components to the commercial vehicle industry for more than half a century.  Its expertise can help truck and trailer operators obtain the lowest cost per mile along with the best and safest performance from the wheel ends they purchase for their equipment. 

Each issue of the Webb OEM Newsletter can be found at www.webboenewsletter.com or can be delivered in PDF format directly each month via e-mail by requesting that option on the website.
