MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – North American wheel balance weight company Perfect Equipment Inc. has updated its operating name to WEGMANN automotive USA Inc. Though the overall operating name has changed, the company’s 75-year-old "Perfect Equipment" brand name will remain unchanged, the company stated. The Perfect Equipment brand offers a comprehensive range of wheel weight solutions including traditional, non-lead, knock-on and adhesive options.

WEGMANN automotive is a leader on a global scale in the wheel balance weight segment for OEM and aftermarket customers and currently manufactures goods on three continents.
According to Jeff Waechter, president and CEO of WEGMANN automotive USA, this naming evolution helps galvanize the WEGMANN automotive global platform and provides consistency to markets worldwide.
“Our top priority is to bring superior value to our customers,” said Waechter. “By continuing to deliver market leading products under our Perfect Equipment and Hofmann Power Weight brand names and by providing ‘best in class’ service using our WEGMANN automotive global network of teams, we feel we have set the stage to offer our customers the best value in the industry.”
