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, however, many drivers don't think about it. When you engage your brakes, the pads and rotors rub together, which makes brake dust. As the name implies, the Brake Dust Shield helps shield your brake and suspension parts from that dust. It also helps protect them from dirt, sand, moisture, and more.
When debris accumulates, it can lead to early wear of your braking system and even brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is particularly important for those who live somewhere with salted roads because salt can lead to faster corrosion of essential braking and suspension parts.
When should you 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 missing or damaged Brake Dust Shield might not cause immediate harm, but you put the lifespan of your braking system in jeopardy.
The Brake Dust Shield lives underneath a few layers of braking hardware, which might make it hard to replace or install at home. Unless you're experienced working with cars, we advise ordering the part online and taking your vehicle to the closest 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-made parts to help make sure you get the right fit for your car.
