Description

Replacing and installing mud flaps on commercial vehicles is not just about protection from mud. HGVs, trucks, trailers, tractors, and cars use these to dampen down and contain a wide range of pollutants and debris that can be thrown up by wheels.

Having custom mud flaps to fit the wheel arch of a specific vehicle or piece of machinery means maximizing the way they shield bodywork and avoid water, mud, and debris hitting anything (or anyone) along their route.

The advantages of Polyurethane for mud flaps

Traditionally, mud flaps on heavy-duty commercial vehicles have been produced using rubber. There are several excellent reasons to use polyurethane instead.

 

This includes the fact that polyurethane mud flaps will stand the test of time and excessive road use. Having them produced from a strong construction material reduces the chances of them splitting, tearing or otherwise letting you down. This means replacing them less often, saving you more money in the long run.

 

There are other compelling reasons why automobile, truck and machinery parts are increasingly moulded from polyurethane. Polyurethane is incredibly elastic and flexible, but also incredibly strong. By altering the physical properties of polyurethane it’s possible to produce components with a wide range of features and advantages.

 

This includes perfectly portioned and robust mud flaps for commercial vehicles that can outlast and outperform rubber versions. Not least as polyurethane can be repeatedly stretched and put under stress, without losing its structural integrity.

 

Keep in mind too that unlike rubber, polyurethane is impervious to extreme temperatures. So, if you need mud flaps for vehicles operating in excessively cold or hot conditions, polyurethane is your best option to avoid cracking or distortion.

Potential uses and custom moulding options

Custom mud flaps on wheel arches and other places serve to protect the vehicle from extensive moisture, splatter and dirt. Reducing the amount of road and mud spray minimises the cleaning requirements, as well as helping to keep bodywork well maintained.

 

There are also important safety considerations in using mud flaps. Their location can be designed to avoid excessive dirt and moisture on vehicle windows or aspects of other machinery. The sort of pollutants which can affect visibility when driving or operating machinery.

 

Use of the best mud flaps for your particular truck, tractor or other vehicles shows consideration to other drivers on the road, or colleagues at your work premises. Suppressing the amount of debris and liquids thrown up by vehicles can be an important safety measure.

 

Anti-spray flaps and other products of this kind can also be moulded with a variety of surface values, depending on the nature of the surface your vehicle may encounter. For example, smooth moulded mud flaps expel water, but textured polyurethane can be the best way to trap and dampen down stone shards and other debris.

 

Heavy duty – and extra heavy duty – ribbed mud flaps for commercial vehicles are one of the most common specifications in this category of custom moulded components.

 

We can even offer you the opportunity to buy commercial polyurethane mud flaps in various colours. Some companies use colour-coded mud flaps to identify specific vehicles in their fleet at a glance or to reflect company livery.
