The hub range, supplied by number
Hub units are the deepest part of the catalogue — 1,661 listings — and the family most supply conversations are about. This desk handles hub bearing and hub assembly orders specifically: lists of OE numbers, quoted generation by generation, so a buyer always knows which unit sits behind each line.
The range runs from the Gen 2 flanged unit through the Gen 3 unit with its integrated ABS sensor to the Gen 4 unit with its integrated constant-velocity joint. All are matched by OE number, and the number is what the quotation is built on.
Why generation discipline matters in supply
A hub order fails expensively when a generation is guessed. The flange can match while the sensor differs, and the error is found at the fitting bench, in another country, at the buyer's expense. Lists sent to this desk are therefore matched on the number, and any line quoted from an application alone is marked as application-matched and carries the one question that confirms it — usually the sensor check.
| Line basis | Desk action |
|---|---|
| OE number | Matched and quoted directly |
| Assembly number | Matched to the same hub unit |
| Application + 'sensor in hub' | Gen 3 quoted, marked for confirmation |
| Application only | Generation question returned with the quote |
Assemblies and kits from the same range
The same hub units are supplied as assemblies under their trade wording, and the popular applications are also ranged as wheel bearing kits. A hub inquiry can therefore be quoted three ways — unit, assembly or kit — where the catalogue holds the application in each format, and the buyer chooses per line rather than per order.
Terms and documentation
Hub orders follow the company's stated terms: shipment from Ningbo or Shanghai and the published payment methods, confirmed in writing on the quotation. Documentation is supplied on request — certificates available upon request — and should be named per number in the inquiry where a market requires it.
A hub list is also the easiest list to keep current. Applications enter the parc as models age into the aftermarket, and the desk flags newly ranged applications in a buyer's existing groups on each requote. The buyer's shelf therefore grows by the applications its own workshops are beginning to see, rather than by a supplier's guess at a market.
Where a buyer's market distinguishes the assembly wording from the unit wording — some catalogues file the same part under both — the quotation can be returned under the buyer's own wording, with the OE number as the anchor that keeps the two filings reconciled.
Fleet and warranty buyers ask one further question of a hub supplier: consistency. A fleet operator who fits the same unit across forty vehicles wants the fortieth unit to be the first unit again — same number, same arrangement, no silent substitution of a near-equivalent. That is a matching discipline before it is a product question, and it is kept by quoting against numbers and flagging any line where the catalogue's answer has changed, rather than letting a similar unit travel under an old line's description.
