Take your 212 away with its transmission protected

Your 212 is made for more than smooth roads. This Almont centre guard protects the automatic gearbox and transfer case with 8 mm duralumin, giving you more peace of mind on rocky tracks and uneven crests. Separate petrol and turbodiesel choices let you match the plate to your 2025-onwards Adventure.

A dedicated guard for the engine you have

The petrol and turbodiesel versions have their own part numbers. Both use 8 mm HeavyDuty duralumin, but the engine choice determines which guard you need. It is a useful addition beneath the centre of your 212, where front protection alone does not cover the transmission.

Choose your version

Choose Gasolina / PDB212B8G for the petrol 2.0T GDI, or Turbodiésel / PDB212B8D for the turbodiesel Adventure. Both are 8 mm HeavyDuty guards at 19.5 kg.

Why we recommend Almont

The material is a large part of what makes Almont protection worth considering. Certified AW5083 H111 duralumin combines high strength with less material weight than steel of the same size and thickness. A scrape will not start red rust in the alloy plate, helping it stay a worthwhile long-term addition to your vehicle. Mud and road salt should still be washed off, including from the separate steel brackets and fixings.

Almont has specialised in vehicle protection since 1992, with input from vehicle preparers involved in the Dakar Rally and other rally-raid events. Its protection is designed and manufactured in Spain. You are choosing specialist underbody protection for the parts of your vehicle that have to face the rough ground first.
