Introducing the Kolchuga® skid plate for the Suzuki SX-4 (2013-2021) II generation (JY) including the facelift model, made from high-quality steel with a thickness of 2 mm. This robust protection acts as a shield for your engine, oil pan, and transmission, safeguarding these vital components from potential damage caused by road hazards. With its durable construction, this skid plate ensures your vehicle remains in optimal condition while navigating the toughest terrains.
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 extensive coverage for critical areas, including the gearbox, engine, radiator, and rear differential. Its design incorporates reinforcing ribs and ventilation openings, enhancing rigidity and impact absorption while ensuring optimal airflow to maintain cooling efficiency. Additionally, service access openings facilitate easy maintenance without the need to remove the protection.
Kolchuga® protection effectively shields against impacts from rocks, ice, and curbs, significantly reducing the risk of damage to your vehicle's underbody. The installation process is straightforward, requiring no drilling or modifications, as it mounts directly to factory points. This ensures mechanical protection while also improving aerodynamics and reducing corrosion risk.
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.
