Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Mazda CX-3 (2015-2018) I generation (DK5) | Kolchuga®
Protect your Mazda CX-3 (2015-2018) with Kolchuga® skid plates, expertly crafted from 2 mm thick steel. This robust protection serves as a shield for your engine and oil pan, ensuring that critical components remain safe from damaging impacts. Designed to withstand the rigors of the road, Kolchuga® skid plates provide essential mechanical protection against various hazards.
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 protection covers the gearbox and engine, ensuring comprehensive safeguarding against road hazards. The construction features reinforcing ribs that enhance durability and shock absorption, while strategically placed ventilation openings maintain optimal cooling for the engine and transmission. Additionally, service access openings allow for quick oil and filter changes without removing the protection.
Kolchuga® skid plates effectively shield against impacts from rocks, ice, curbs, and speed bumps, significantly reducing the risk of damage to your vehicle's underbody. The mechanical protection not only decreases the likelihood of costly repairs but also enhances aerodynamics and noise reduction. The installation process is straightforward, mounting directly to factory points without any drilling or modifications.
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.
