Dongfeng Kinland truck parts Left upper foot pedal cover 8405225-C0100

A core advantage of the 8405225-C0100 cover is its dual role as both a visual enhancer and a protective barrier. Cosmetically, it features a textured matte black finish (matching Kinland’s factory exterior trim palette) that covers scratches, rust stains, or faded paint on aging pedals—elevating the truck’s cab entry area appearance and maintaining a consistent, professional look for fleet vehicles. Functionally, the cover acts as a shield for the pedal’s base steel structure: it blocks road salt, mud, and industrial dust from seeping into the pedal’s crevices, preventing corrosion of the underlying metal; it also absorbs minor impact from debris (e.g., gravel or small tools), reducing wear on the pedal’s anti-slip rubber overlay. For Kinland trucks operating in construction zones or coastal regions, this dual protection extends the pedal’s service life by 35% while keeping the cab entry area visually appealing

Built to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty truck operations—including extreme temperatures, frequent stepping, and chemical exposure—the 8405225-C0100 cover uses robust, long-lasting materials. The cover’s main body is injection-molded from high-impact ABS plastic (reinforced with 12% glass fiber), delivering a tensile strength of 42MPa and impact resistance of 19kJ/m²—capable of withstanding 600,000+ stepping cycles (equivalent to 6+ years of heavy use) without cracking, warping, or discoloration. The surface is treated with a UV-stabilized coating that resists fading or chalking in prolonged sunlight (UV resistance rating: UVA 400), ensuring the matte black finish remains vibrant even after exposure to desert or high-altitude sun. Additionally, the plastic is oil-resistant (compatible with diesel, motor oil, and hydraulic fluid spills) and low-temperature tolerant (-45°C to 85°C)—performing reliably in snow, rain, or extreme heat

The 8405225-C0100 cover is designed for hassle-free, tool-free installation, minimizing Kinland truck downtime. It features 5 integrated nylon snap-fit clips (positioned along the cover’s inner edges) that lock into the original pedal’s pre-drilled mounting holes—no bolts, screws, or adhesives required. Installation takes just 1-2 minutes: align the cover with the pedal’s edges (guided by built-in alignment tabs), apply gentle pressure until the clips “click” into place, and verify secure attachment by tugging lightly. Removal is equally simple (pull the cover’s edge to release clips), making it easy to replace worn covers or access the pedal for maintenance (e.g., cleaning or rubber overlay replacement). For fleet operators, this quick installation eliminates labor costs for professional fitting—drivers or technicians can replace covers during routine stops, keeping trucks well-maintained

Despite its decorative purpose, the 8405225-C0100 cover prioritizes driver safety with thoughtful design features. Its top surface features a diamond-patterned raised texture (1.8mm depth) that mirrors the original pedal’s anti-slip design, maintaining a friction coefficient of ≥0.85—critical for preventing slips in wet, icy, or muddy conditions. The cover’s edges are rounded (3mm radius) to eliminate sharp corners that could catch on footwear (e.g., work boots) or cause injury during cab entry/exit. Additionally, it includes 4 small drainage slots (2mm width) along the bottom edge to channel away water or mud, preventing pooling on the stepping surface and ensuring consistent traction. For Kinland drivers who enter/exit the cab 10+ times daily (e.g., delivery workers or construction operators), this safety-centric design ensures the decorative cover enhances—not compromises—stepping security
