Protect your Mitsubishi Triton (2006-2014) IV generation (KAOT) with a Kolchuga® skid plate made from durable 2 mm steel. This robust protection acts as a shield for your vehicle's engine, oil pan, and transmission, safeguarding critical components from potential damage caused by road debris and obstacles. With Kolchuga®, you ensure that your vehicle is equipped to withstand challenging terrains and harsh conditions.

| 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 comprehensive coverage for the gearbox, radiator, engine, transfer case, and petrol tank. Its construction features reinforcing ribs and ventilation openings, ensuring effective impact absorption while maintaining optimal airflow for cooling. Additionally, many models include service access openings for convenient maintenance.
Kolchuga® protection shields your vehicle against impacts from rocks, ice, dirt, curbs, and speed bumps, significantly reducing the risk of damage. Installation is straightforward, as the protection mounts directly to the factory points without the need for drilling or alterations, providing a seamless fit and enhanced mechanical protection.
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.
