Metal Dust Shield Covers for AL-KO 8K / 10K / 12K Trailer Brakes – Pair
Part Number: 1531044-2
This listing includes two metal dust shield covers used with AL-KO trailer brake assemblies commonly found on 8,000 lb, 10,000 lb, and 12,000 lb axles. These shields mount behind the brake backing plate and provide a protective barrier against road debris entering the brake components.
Many AL-KO brake assemblies require two shields per axle. This listing supplies a pair of dust shields to support installations where both sides of the axle require replacement shields.
These metal shields are commonly used as replacements for original plastic dust covers that may become damaged or missing during brake service or axle repairs.

R&P Knowledge Hub
Dust shields are installed between the brake backing plate and the axle flange to protect the internal brake components from road debris, moisture, and contaminants. On heavy-duty trailer brake systems such as AL-KO 8K–12K assemblies, the shield helps prevent debris from entering the braking surface area while the trailer is in motion. Some brake installations require one shield per brake assembly, resulting in two shields per axle. Installers should confirm brake size and mounting pattern before installing replacement shields.
