Title: Why the Brake Dust Shields are Essential in your Car


1
Why the Brake Dust Shields are Essential in your
Car
2
When you are handling all the repair and
replacement of car yourself, then you will
definitely come across the dreaded brake dust
shield while replacing the brake pads.
3
The brake dust shield of the car is usually used
for protecting the brake system components and
suspension parts of the car as well.
4
When the brake dust shield of the car is
damaged, it will corrode the brake caliper, fail
the braking system and lead to premature wear and
tear.
5
Apart from the disc brake system of the car, the
brake dust shield is also essential for
protecting the entire system of the car.
6
The following points define the basic role of
brake dust shield in your car for the smooth
functioning of the braking system.
7
Enhance lifespan of the brake system
8
The friction caused by the debris may be stuck
between the brake pad and brake rotor and cause
excessive wear in the brake pad.
9
The dust or dirt from the road or other debris
may damage the brake pads and cause premature
wear on different components of the car.
10
When the brake dust shield of the car is removed,
then the critical component of the braking system
is accelerated due to the accumulated brake dust.

11
So, keeping the brake dust shield in a car can
extend the life of the rotors, pads and the brake
calipers as well.
12
Prevent road debris build up
13
Removing the brake dust from the wheels of your
car is very simple. To clean it, most of the car
owners spray water in between the wheel holes.
14
Removing the dirt and grime of the road is not
always simple, but now the modern car has a brake
dust shield which blocks these contaminated.
15
The brake dust shield of the car block all the
collection of brake dust and other contaminants
like road, dirt, grime and other particles.
16
In cold weather climates, the brake dust shield
prevent the brake system premature wear and tear
from the collection of road salt
17
Prevent the brake failure
18
The car owners generally replace the brakes of
the car as per the recommendation by their
manufacturers on every 30,000 miles.
19
When the car owners remove the brake dust shield
of the car, then the brake pads and rotors are
lead to unusual wear and tear.
20
As a result, these issues can cause warning signs
in the car such as grinding noise when applying
the brakes or squeaking noise when it is failed
or wear out.
21
But installing the brake dust shield can protect
all the braking system components of the car and
prevent the brake failure issues.
22
Conclusion
23
When you are removing the brake dust shield of
your car, then it can eventually affect the whole
braking system.
24
So, it is always essential to reinstall the
brake dust shield of your car in the routine
service and maintenance process.
