Shield
Bendix

Wheel-end shield providing broad protection coverage for the brake housing and rotating components. The VMRS code confirms alignment with wheel-end protection category, while category 41393 indicates suitability for drum-brake installations. The geometry shields seals and bearings from dust and spray, promoting longer seal life and steadier brake function. Installation is straightforward using standard bolts and brackets common to heavy-duty drum brakes, and the durable construction resists cracking and corrosion in harsh climates. In practice, fleets operating in mining, agriculture, or overland transport benefit from decreased contamination, extended maintenance intervals, and enhanced braking reliability across diverse loads and environments. The shield supports OEM recommended service intervals and is compatible with typical drum-brake assemblies within the Bendix product lines.
