What Class 7 does NOT protect

These look similar but belong to another class. Choosing wrong is the most common reason a trademark protects less than its owner believes.

The most expensive mistake in Class 7

The line between class 7 and class 8 is the motor: the tool that runs on power is class 7 and the one driven by hand is class 8, even when the same manufacturer sells both under the same brand. And the engine inside a car or a motorcycle is not class 7 but class 12. A tool catalogue almost always needs both classes.

Who files in Class 7

  • Industrial machinery manufacturers
  • Metalworking industry
  • Power tool manufacturers
  • Engine and engine part manufacturers
  • Makers of motorized cleaning and kitchen appliances

Trademarks registered in this class: Caterpillar, John Deere, Bosch

Classes commonly filed alongside Class 7

In Mexico each class is a separate application. Which classes you need depends on what your business actually does and how you plan to enter the market, not on the classes being related to each other. These show up in similar businesses, but the right list comes from your own activity.

Not sure which class you need?

A wrongly chosen class cannot be fixed later: you refile and you pay again. We review your case and tell you exactly which classes your trademark belongs in before anything is filed.
