Whether you have a work truck, a city truck or an off-roader, mud flaps can protect your truck by deflecting debris away from the fender wells. Your tires are constantly contacting all kinds of potentially paint-damaging things like mud, tar and small rocks. While your truck’s fender wells are designed to contain stuff like this, they can’t do it all and that is where mud flaps come in. Fender walls do not reach down to the tires and leave a substantial area unprotected allowing your tires free to flip mud, rocks, salt and more out violently toward your paint as well as other drivers behind you. A work truck entering the road from a construction site can easily pick up small rocks in the tire treads and then flip them out at highway speed resulting in dings and dents to your truck or other vehicles. Installing the right mud flaps can save you money and time by keeping your truck cleaner and better protected from rocks, tar, salt, mud and anything else that can get swept up in your tire treads and thrown out toward an unsuspecting paint job.
Whether you refer to them as mud flaps, splash guards, mudguards, or splash shields, they are basically the same product. Mud flaps and splash guards are installed as extensions of the front fenders and rear quarter panels or bedsides. The names “mud flap” and “splash guard” are often used interchangeably. They protect the rocker panels and the windshields of drivers behind you. Splash guards and mud flaps perform the same function. So, mud flaps are the same as splash guards and mud guards. They are attached behind tires and prevent gravel, mud, tar, dirt and water from splashing up onto your truck while you are driving.

Whether you call them splash guards or mudflaps they are worth the money and pay for themselves with even one use protecting the paint from flying rocks that chip away paint and expose bare metal which can later rust. Whether you drive on gravel roads, messy job sites, go off-roading or make deliveries in the city your mudflaps are a worthy investment that pay for themselves several times over. Your truck’s mud flaps serve an essential purpose. They’re one of the simplest pieces protective equipment on a truck. Mud flaps are also called mudguards, splash aprons and splash guards.
Mudflaps, mud flaps or mud guards are used in conjunction with a vehicle’s fenders to protect the vehicle, passengers, other nearby vehicles, as well as pedestrians from mud and flying debris tossed into the air by a vehicle’s rotating tires. Mudflaps are usually made from a flexible material, often rubber which cannot be easily damaged by contact with flying debris, the tire, or the road surface. They are rectangular shields of rubber, plastic or metal that hang behind a vehicle’s rear wheels. IN order to prevent mud, dirt and other road debris from striking the truck or other motorists, mudflaps need to be as wide as the tire or tries, in the case of dually trucks with dual rear wheels on each side.
The term “mud flap” was coined in 1944 when Oscar Glenn March invented his most famous invention, a “the mud flap”. Glenn was a truck driver Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City during World War II. Glenn constructed brackets which attached to the undercarriage of a truck behind each wheel. Each of the brackets held a heavy rectangular piece of canvas, that prevented the truck tires from flipping rocks, water, mud, and debris at other vehicles as they drove down the road. Glenn’s mud flap devices we so effective that they because standard equipment of all trucks for Tinker AFB. Soon, other military bases adopted the idea and it spread to the public as well. Nowadays, mud flaps are required in many states for trucks to prevent damage to other vehicles and are ubiquitous all around the world. From 18 wheeler big-rigs to pickup trucks, work trucks, haulers and duallys mud flaps are everywhere protecting vehicles from paint damage, dents, tar, rocks, mud and other debris kicked up on-road or off-road.
Mudflaps may be large rectangular sheets hanging behind the tires, or may be small molded lips below the rear of the vehicle’s wheel wells. Mud flaps can be aerodynamically engineered to improve airflow and lower drag with vents and shaping. Mud flaps are available in a variety of styles. In the United States, mudflap regulations vary from state to state with some requiring their use by law.

Protecting your truck with mudflaps reduces the chance that rocks and other road debris will impact the paint surface and cause scratches, chips, and dents. Also mudflats can prevent rust. Flying debris can damage your truck paint enough that the steel chassis underneath can be exposed allowing rust can develop. If left untreated, rust can spread and cause major damage. Mud flaps for commercial work trucks can help prevent rust. They also catch snow that sprays from behind your wheels obscuring the view of drivers behind you as well as slowing the buildup of road salt on your vehicle’s undercarriage which also prevents rusting.
