Description
- 5 mm aluminium protective plates
- Protects the fuel tank and SCR tank (AdBlue®)
- Two-piece design for easier maintenance and greater stability
Robust aluminium protection plate set for the tanks of the Ford Custom and Volkswagen Transporter T8. Replaces the original plastic trim.
The set of two protection plates makes installation particularly easy. Subsequent maintenance work can be carried out by just one person. In addition, the design is significantly more resilient than a one-piece solution thanks to additional chamfers.
For maximum stability and minimum weight, stainless steel brackets connect the protective plate to the underbody.
CAD-based design and high-precision manufacturing guarantee a perfect fit. Ground clearance is fully retained.
Installation only possible in conjunction with: Item no. 1416 0005 Mounting strip left L1 Ford Custom V710 / Volkswagen Transporter T8
Including mounting material.
This product is not suitable as a mounting surface for jacks.
Short distances, clear responsibility: our protective products are developed and designed in-house – manufacturing takes place regionally in Germany.

Maintenance
The available protective elements for the vehicle underbody and body are made of high-quality and untreated aluminium. Negative environmental influences, aggressive and unsuitable cleaning agents (e.g. acidic), road salt or/and insufficient care make the surface appear unsightly. Surface finishing (powder coating/painting/anodising) of the protective elements is possible, but we do not recommend it. These products are exposed to very different and unfavourable influences at the installation site, such as road dirt and stone chips. Depending on the intended use of the vehicle, various surface finishes have proven to be less durable and long-lasting in the past; the aluminium profiles then quickly look very unsightly. A guarantee on the durability of the surface finish is therefore not possible under any circumstances! Basically, we advise the following for the various protective elements of the vehicle underbody:In order to maintain the driving safety and function of all parts, we recommend removing heavy dirt from the vehicle underbody and the add-on parts. For this purpose, the existing protective plates of the vehicle underbody (e.g. engine, gearbox, tank & rear axle) should also be dismantled; regular cleaning is recommended here, e.g. at the end of the winter half-year, and after every use in difficult terrain with e.g. mud, sand/gravel and water crossings. The use of polish, such as NevrDull, is recommended for the care of untreated aluminium components.
