Gearbox & Engine Skid Plate for Hyundai Staria (2021-) I generation (US4) | Kolchuga®
Protect your Hyundai Staria (2021-) with the Kolchuga® skid plate, expertly crafted from either 2 mm thick steel or 3 mm thick aluminum (AluOx®). This premium protection acts as a robust shield for your engine and gearbox, ensuring that critical components remain safe from damage caused by road hazards. Experience peace of mind knowing your vehicle is equipped with a reliable defense against impacts.
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 critical zones, including the engine and gearbox, ensuring maximum defense against impacts. Its design features reinforcing ribs that enhance rigidity and shock absorption, while strategically placed ventilation openings promote optimal airflow for cooling. Additionally, service access openings allow for easy maintenance without removing the protection.
Kolchuga® skid plates effectively shield against damage from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps. They provide mechanical protection that reduces the risk of costly repairs while also improving aerodynamics, which can lead to slight fuel savings. Installation is straightforward, as the plate mounts directly to factory points without the need for 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.
