A heat shield (200) for a turbocharger (100) has a disc-like configuration. The heat shield (200) includes an outer radial portion, an outer wall (210, 210', 210"), a connecting wall (212, 212', 212"), and an inner wall (214, 214', 214"). The outer radial portion is disposed circumferentially around an axis of the heat shield (200). The outer wall (210, 210', 210") extends from the outer radial portion in a first axial direction. The connecting wall (212, 212', 212") extends radially inward substantially perpendicularly from the outer wall (210, 210', 210"). The inner wall (214, 214', 214") extends substantially perpendicularly from the connecting wall (212, 212', 212") in a second axial direction opposite the first axial direction.
