What makes a high quality wiper blade?
There are three distinct attributes that contribute to the performance (quality) of wiper blades. These are frame, rubber and adapters. Frame should be robust for durability (primary and secondary links should be durable so they do not break in snow and icy conditions even if yanked or hit with snow scrappers, or while going thru car washes). The frame should also be designed to prevent wind lift and provide a good wrap around the windshield. Finally, the frame should be corrosion resistant and provide a good locking mechanism for rubber and stainless-steel spline used to support the rubber. Not having a good frame structure not only compromises the quality of wipe but also scratches or damages windshields, causing accidents. Rubber should provide good quality of wipe and be reasonably durable. Compound of the rubber, surface finish and the cutting mechanism (for the wiping edge) are all key contributing factors to quality of wipe, which takes the form of smooth, low-noise, chatter-fre
