This robust protection acts as a shield for your engine and oil pan, safeguarding critical components from the harsh impacts of the road. Invest in the longevity of your vehicle with this reliable accessory, designed specifically for your model.
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 provides comprehensive coverage for the engine and gearbox, ensuring maximum protection against potential damage. Its construction includes reinforcing ribs for added strength and ventilation openings to facilitate airflow, preventing overheating. Additionally, service access openings allow for easy maintenance without the need to remove the entire shield.
The Kolchuga® skid plate effectively protects against impacts from rocks, ice, curbs, and speed bumps, extending the life of your vehicle. The installation process is straightforward, as it mounts directly to the factory points without any drilling or modifications required, ensuring quick and easy setup.
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.
