Product Information
Full details
This product is for commercial or occasional users needing durable, flexible mudguards for trailers with 15" or 16" wheels. The key benefit is their crack-resistant, impact-absorbing polyethylene construction, which is lighter and safer than metal alternatives. A caveat is that the provided brackets may require additional support for heavy-duty applications.

FAQs
What material are the mudguards made from?
They are made from high-impact injection molded black polyethylene, known for its flexibility and crack resistance.
How many mudguards are included in this listing?
This listing is for a pair of mudguards (two total).
What size wheels are these mudguards suitable for?

How many brackets are included?
This listing includes 6 mudguard brackets.
Are these mudguards lighter than metal ones?
Yes, they are significantly lighter and safer than metal mudguards.
Can I use these on a single axle trailer?
While designed for tandem axles, they could potentially be adapted for a single axle if the dimensions are suitable, but the tandem configuration is their primary application.
What are the dimensions of a single mudguard?
Each mudguard is 1750mm (69") long, 200mm (8") wide, and 530mm (21") high.
Troubleshooting
Mudguard appears to be sagging or flexing excessively.
Ensure all brackets are securely fastened to both the mudguard and the trailer. Consider adding additional support brackets if the load or terrain is particularly demanding.
Brackets show signs of rust.
While plated for protection, severe conditions may require a touch-up with a rust-inhibiting paint. Ensure any scratches on the plating are addressed.
Difficulty aligning mounting holes.
The bracket mounting holes are slightly elongated to allow for minor adjustment. Loosen bolts slightly to reposition before fully tightening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Position the mudguards over the tandem wheels to determine the optimal placement.
- Attach the provided steel brackets to the mudguards using appropriate hardware (not included).
