Brake Splash Guard. Plate Baffle.
A shield used to contain the brake dust produced by the brake pads of a vehicle's disc brake calipers. This typically is mounted to the vehicle's wheel hub. Additionally, it functions as a splash guard to protect a vehicle's disc brake rotors from water, dirt and debris.
- Important part of braking system
- Protects brake components from dust and debris
- Replace if broken, corroded, or missing
Your INFINITI Brake Dust Shield is an essential part of your car's braking system, yet many drivers don't think about it. When you brake, the friction between the rotors and pads creates brake dust. As the name implies, the Brake Dust Shield helps protect your brake and suspension components against this dust. It even helps protect them from sand, moisture, dirt, and more.
If debris builds up, it might cause premature wear of your braking system and even brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is extra important if you live in areas with salted roads because salt can cause essential braking and suspension parts to corrode faster.
When is it time to replace your INFINITI Brake Dust Shield? If your Brake Dust Shield is bent, cracked, loose, rusted, or missing, you need a new one. Driving with a damaged or missing Brake Dust Shield might not have an immediate effect, but you risk shortening the life of your braking system.
The Brake Dust Shield is located behind a few layers of braking hardware, which can make it difficult to replace or install yourself. Unless you are familiar and comfortable working with cars, we advise ordering the part online and bringing your vehicle to your local INFINITI service center to have certified technicians replace the Brake Dust Shield.
You don't want to take any chances when it comes to the Brake Dust Shield and your braking system. Shop OEM parts to help make sure you get the right fit for your car.
