    The Tire Industry Association (TIA) and Michelin Americas Truck Tires (MATT) have partnered to create a new training video for truck fleets.

    The 20-minute video titled “Wheel End Safety” is intended to provide maintenance personnel and drivers with installation and inspection guidelines to improve wheel-end performance and safety.

    It addresses a number of related topics, but the primary focus is to help fleets prevent wheel-off accidents and wheel-end fires. The video is available as a free download on TIA’s website, www.tireindustry.org and on Michelin’s website, www.michelintruck.com.
