Flat Wiper Blades

How they work

To work efficiently and ensure maximum visibility, wiper blades need to provide even coverage and pressure distribution across the whole windscreen. The technology in our flat wiper blades achieves this along with a slick design and long lifespan. The blades in our wipers are highly durable, with the blade vertebrae ensuring evenly spread pressure, and exact application match provide great wiping quality. Plus, the slim, aerodynamic design minimizes wind noise and ensures outstanding performance, even at high speeds.

This elegant blade design also integrates well with the style of many car models, including a wide range of left-hand drive applications. This reliable performance, stylish design and easy fit technology gives our products a level of design and performance to match the ambitious standards of car makers.

Installation & Fault finding

Wiper blades are a key part of any car’s safety system, and need to be installed correctly and have any faults fixed quickly.

Installation

Wiper blades are straightforward to install when the correct steps are followed.

Firstly, read the installation guide carefully.
Clean the windshield manually (not with the old wiper blades).
Ensure the new wiper blades are the correct ones. It’s essential to do this early – once the old ones are removed, it can be difficult to fit them back onto the wiper arms.
Lift the arm off the windshield to its highest point. Some cars’ wipers need to be moved to the service position or to 12 o’clock. This is because not all wiper arms are designed to be lifted in their normal ‘parked’ position and can be prevented from doing so by the hood.
Remove the old wiper blades and inspect the wiper arms for corrosion and imperfections. If these are evident, seek professional advice to ensure their safety isn’t compromised.
Gently place the arm back into position. Do not allow the arm to stand on its own or hit the windshield, as in both cases, the windshield will be damaged and likely need replacement.
Take and prepare the new wiper. Remove protective cover from the rubber, if present. Lift the arm again and install the wiper in accordance with the installation guide. Gently place the arm back into position.
Try operating the wiper system while vehicle is stationary.

Fault finding

Fixing faults quickly will ensure optimum wiper blade performance.

Foreign matter has attached itself to the rubber blade.
The edge or whole of the blade is worn.
The arm is at an incorrect angle.
The wiper blade or rubber is deformed.

Streaking marks on the windscreen.
The wiper blade jumps or vibrates as it moves across the windscreen.
There are spots on the screen that are left unwiped.
The wiper blade doesn’t make contact with the windscreen evenly, leaving large unwiped surfaces.

If you notice any symptoms of wiper blade failure, it’s worth checking the blade to make sure the arm is at the correct angle and the wiper blade is clean. If, after wiping and changing the angle, there is no improvement in performance, the blade may need replacing. It’s recommended that wiper blades be replaced every year at least.
