This essential accessory serves as a formidable shield for your engine oil pan and transmission, safeguarding them from potential damage caused by road hazards.

| 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 |

This skid plate covers critical areas including the radiator, gearbox, engine, and transfer case. Its construction features reinforcing ribs that enhance rigidity and shock absorption during impacts. Additionally, strategically placed ventilation openings ensure optimal airflow, maintaining engine and transmission cooling while preventing overheating.
Kolchuga® protection effectively shields against damage from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps. Its installation promotes mechanical protection, reduces corrosion risk, and improves aerodynamics, contributing to enhanced vehicle performance. The skid plate mounts directly to factory points, requiring no drilling or modifications for a straightforward 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.
