The purpose of trailer Mud Guards, which are also known as Fenders, is to protect the trailer, its cargo, and other vehicles on the road from debris that is kicked up by the trailer wheels.
As the trailer moves, its wheels pick up mud, rocks, and other materials that can be flung outwards and cause damage to the trailer or other vehicles on the road. Trailer Mud Guards are typically mounted over the wheels and extend outwards to cover a portion of the tire, creating a barrier that deflects debris away from the trailer and surrounding vehicles.
By protecting the trailer and other vehicles on the road from debris, trailer Mud Guards help to improve safety and prevent damage. They also help to reduce the amount of spray and splash caused by wet roads or puddles, which can improve visibility for other drivers on the road.
Overall, the purpose of trailer fenders is to provide an important layer of protection for the trailer and surrounding vehicles, as well as to improve safety and visibility on the road.
