  1. WHY THE BRAKE DUST SHIELDS ARE ESSENTIAL IN YOUR CAR?

  2. Brake dust builds up between brake pads and brake rotor and cause: • Corroded brake caliper • Premature wear and tear • Brake system failure

  3. Dreaded brake shield can be encountered while replacing brake pads.

  4. Brake dust shield prevents the excessive collection of brake dust and protect: • Brake system components • Other suspension parts

  5. Brake dust shield is important to protect the entire system of the car.

  6. Below points define the necessity of brake dust shield of the car.

  7. EXTEND BRAKE SYSTEM LIFESPAN

  8. Debris stuck between the brake pad and brake rotor cause friction.

  9. Brake problems wear components due to excessive friction from: • Dust from brake pad • Dirt from the road • Contaminated debris

  10. When brake dust shield is removed, dust is accelerated on components.

  11. So, friction is increased when the brake pads applied to rotor and cause: • Wear of the pads • Damage the rotors

  12. REDUCE ROAD GRIME BUILD-UP

  13. Removing the brake dust from the car is a very simple process.

  14. Brake dust shield blocks the collection of brake dust with other: • Road grime • Dirt • Other particles

  15. People in a cold-weather deal with premature brake wear and tear.

  16. Brake dust shield can block road grime, salt and other contaminates.

  17. LEAD TO BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE

  18. Replace the brakes as recommended and usually on every 30,000 miles.

  19. Recommendations are set by normal use and include all OEM parts.

  20. If you remove the brake dust shield, then you will notice: • Brake pads wear and tear • Brake rotors wear and tear

  21. All these components can display warning signs and symptoms like: • Grinding • Squeaking • Clunking • Squealing

  22. CONCLUSION

  23. People remove brake dust shield to avoid extra steps during brake pad replacement.

  24. Install brake dust shield while performing routine service of components.
