Andersen Flaps has expanded its aerodynamic Eco-flaps splash guard line with the addition of an 18-in.-wide splash guard that can be paired with wide-based tires.

Also available in custom lengths, Anderson Flaps says the new wide splash guard is backed by Eco-flaps standard two-year warranty. The custom length option means less surface blocking airflow behind these tires, allowing better highway fuel economy. Shorter-length flaps also reduce the risk of catching when backing over curbs, the company says.

The new 18-in. splash guard also offers the same design that reduces wind resistance (drag) to improve highway fuel economy and reduces excessive road spray by redirecting airborne water to the pavement rather than into passing or trailing vehicle’s lines-of-sight, the company says.

This new size of Eco-flaps splash guards is manufactured of the same durable, high-impact nylon as all Eco-flaps. This high-grade nylon enables them to withstand extreme conditions, providing longer life than competitive flaps.

Anderson Flaps says the new 18-in. splash guard will be available early in 2015.
