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 Nissan Brake Dust Shield is an essential part of your car's braking system, yet many people overlook it. When you engage your brakes, the friction between the pads and rotors makes brake dust. As the name implies, the Brake Dust Shield helps protect your brake and suspension components against this dust. It also helps shield them from moisture, dirt, sand, and more.
When debris accumulates, it can cause early wear of your braking system and possibly brake failure. The Brake Dust Shield is especially important for drivers who live somewhere with salted roads because salt can cause essential braking and suspension parts to corrode faster.
When is it time to replace your Nissan Brake Dust Shield? If your Brake Dust Shield is rusted, bent, cracked, loose, or missing altogether, you need a replacement. Driving with a damaged or missing Brake Dust Shield might not immediately harm your vehicle, but you put the lifespan of your braking system in jeopardy.
The Brake Dust Shield is located behind a few layers of braking hardware, which can make it challenging to replace or install on your own. Unless you are familiar and comfortable working with cars, we recommend ordering the component online and bringing your vehicle to the nearest Nissan service center to have the Brake Dust Shield replaced by certified technicians.
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 Nissan.
