Engine & Gearbox Skid Plate for Toyota Camry (2024-) IX generation (XV80) | Kolchuga®
Protect your Toyota Camry (2024-) IX generation (XV80) with Kolchuga® skid plates. Available in two robust materials, 2 mm thick steel or 3 mm thick aluminum (AluOx®), this protection acts as a mechanical shield for your engine and gearbox. Designed to withstand the rigors of the road, it ensures that your vehicle's vital components remain safe from impacts and debris.
The main Kolchuga® protection panel is made from high-quality steel with a thickness of 2 mm. Steel protection is available with two coating options, providing different levels of corrosion protection.
| Coating | Protection Technology | Purpose and Benefits | Corrosion Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|
| WhiteCover® | Hot-dip galvanizing (compliant with EN ISO 1461). | Reliable and long-lasting coating. Ideal for vehicles with very intensive use (e.g., commercial vehicles). | Up to 24 months |
| ZiPoFlex® | Premium combination: Hot-dip galvanizing + Polymer painting + Polymer lacquer. | The ultimate solution for any, even the most demanding operating conditions (corrosivity category C5). | Up to 36 months |
Aluminum protection (thickness 3 mm)
The protection is made from the exclusive AluOx® aluminum alloy, alloyed with magnesium. The alloy is lightweight, strong, and durable; the addition of magnesium increases specific strength and provides corrosion resistance, especially in marine and chemically aggressive environments. This protection does not require additional protective coating or anodizing (unlike steel ones), as it has natural corrosion resistance.
This skid plate covers the engine and gearbox, providing comprehensive protection against road hazards. Its design features reinforcing ribs and ventilation openings, ensuring optimal airflow while maintaining structural integrity. Additionally, service access openings allow for easy maintenance without removing the protection.
Kolchuga® skid plates effectively shield your vehicle from impacts caused by rocks, ice, curbs, and speed bumps. The installation not only enhances mechanical protection but also reduces corrosion and improves aerodynamics, contributing to better fuel efficiency. The protection mounts directly to factory points, requiring no drilling or modifications for installation.
How does Kolchuga® protection differ from the factory one? The factory (stock) protection is typically a plastic dust cover (splash guard) or thin composite material. Its main function is protection from dirt and dust. In contrast, Kolchuga® protection is a durable metal plate (steel or aluminum) that serves as a mechanical shield. It provides reliable protection from impacts against rocks, branches, or open manholes. The key difference: Factory protection guards against dirt, while Kolchuga® guards against impact.
