Audi A3 Brake Dust Shield

Audi A3 Brake Dust Shield is essential to ensuring the rotor and other components are clean and reliable by preventing the entry of corrosive dust, water and debris onto the rotors and other surrounding components. The stamped metal plate, which is installed behind the rotor in each Audi wheel arch, captures pad particles, which would otherwise mark wheels or cut the finish, and the barrier restricts salt spray, which accelerates rust on calipers and hubs. The initial shields were made of thin steel, which could rust through completely, exposing brakes. Subsequent revisions of the same Audi adopted galvanized or heavier sheet steel, extending service life with a minimal weight penalty due to more extensive durability ambitions throughout the Audi line. Whatever the style, the part is a direct fit, typically pulled off the knuckle by sliding the rotor and hub over it, but sometimes the half-shaft will have to be removed first. When the car is provided with drum parking brakes in the interior of the rear rotor hat, the backing plate is heavier since it secures the shoes and linkage, and thus it does not dissolve like the front shield. When selecting a replacement Brake Dust Shield, match the wheel size and model year so that the bolt holes and clearances are correct, and the wheel rotates easily. A clean Brake Dust Shield preserves stopping force and painted alloys, assists every Audi driver in maintaining a clean and stylish look to the sporty A3 and in safely braking, and each Brake Dust Shield is a low cost part that shields the vital hardware.
