Windscreen Wipers

Windscreen wipers

One of the few clearly visible parts that a DIY driver may quickly replace is the wipers. They are necessary to clear your windscreen of rain, dust, pollen, and other particles so that you can see clearly while driving. Since poor vision frequently results in traffic accidents, wiper blades, along with interior lighting and ventilation, are essential for driving safety.

Several sizes

There are windscreen wipers in a variety of sizes. Too-long blades will either collide with one another or go over the edge of the windscreen. Additionally, windscreens with too-short blades won’t be completely cleaned, lowering your field of vision and safety. If you’re unsure, it’s recommended to measure your present windshield wipers or refer to your owner’s manual to be sure you choose the right size for your vehicle. If you are unsure, please consult us.

Different types of wipers

Conventional, flat, and hybrid wiper blades are the three main varieties. If your vehicle came with conventional windshield wipers, you can update them to flat or hybrid wipers for better performance and aesthetics. It should be noted, though, that flat windshield wipers cannot be replaced with conventional ones

Conventional windscreen wiper blades

Depending on the length of the blade, conventional windscreen wipers have a metal or metal plastic composite construction with a central bridge and articulated linkages that delivers between 4 and 8 pressure points. For a consistent pressure on the glass, spring flexors transfer the force produced by the wiper arm spring through the wiper bridge, links, and flexors to the rubber element.
