Truckers are invited to contact the Tire Retread Information Bureau for a free copy of the “Don’t Thump ‘Em, Pump ‘Em” poster, which promotes the use of tire gauges as a way to keep truck tires properly maintained. The 17 1/2-by-23-inch poster is printed in full color on heavy paper and is suitable for framing. Click here to download the poster in pdf format.

“We originally offered this poster a number of years ago and have had so many requests for copies since that we decided to offer it again to truckers who are interested in doing the right thing for their tires,” says Harvey Brodsky, managing director of TRIB. “The right thing is to use a properly calibrated tire gauge on a regular basis instead of a tire thumper. Any trucker who thinks he can tell how much air is in a tire by thumping it might as well thump the hood of his cab to determine if his engine needs oil.”

A free copy of the TRIB poster can be ordered by calling 888-473-8732 or by e-mailing [email protected].
