Radiator, Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Jeep Compass (2006-2017) I generation (MK49) вкл. c Faceliftом | Kolchuga®
Protect your Jeep Compass (2006-2017) with Kolchuga® skid plates, designed specifically for your vehicle's underbody. This protection is made from 2 mm steel, providing a robust barrier against potential road hazards. Think of it as a shield for your oil pan, gearbox, and engine, ensuring that critical components remain intact during off-road adventures or city driving.
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 |
This skid plate offers comprehensive coverage for the radiator, gearbox, and engine, ensuring that these vital components are shielded from potential damage. The construction includes reinforcing ribs and ventilation openings, which help dissipate heat while maintaining optimal airflow to the engine and transmission. Additionally, service access openings allow for quick oil and filter changes without removing the protection.
The Kolchuga® skid plate effectively guards against impacts from rocks, ice, curbs, and speed bumps. This mechanical protection not only minimizes the risk of damage but also reduces maintenance needs. Installation is straightforward, as the skid plate mounts directly to factory points without the need for drilling or welding.
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.
