Visibly Superior: Bosch Wiper Blades

Apr 01, 2016 Bosch, Aftermarket, Repair, Garage, Mechanic, WindowWipers


Windshield wipers are on of the unsung heroes of car safety – we all see them, we use them, but most repair clients forget to replace them. And because they are constantly exposed to sunlight and harsh elements which can cause degradation and cracking, they are prone to wear – even when they are not in use. Wiper blade service intervals will range anywhere from six months to a year, dependent upon driving conditions and the quality of the wiper.


Bosch wiper rubber compound contains a substance that protects against the damaging effects of ozone and significantly extends service life of the wiper rubber. Having manufactured electric windshield wiping systems for over 80 years, Bosch has the world’s biggest factory in Tienen Belgium and supplies wiper systems and wiper blades to a large number of vehicle manufacturers.


Bosch wiper blades are tested for their ability to withstand stress over 750,000 wipe cycles and offer ECO and Aerotwin ranges for passenger cars and commercial vehicles. Bosch ECO wiper blades boast affordability and quality, as well as a variety of models with sizes that can vary from 300mm up to 600mm. Other highlights include a natural rubber wiper blade element with graphite coating for through wiping action.


Bosch Aerotwin wipers feature an optimised aerodynamic design and ensure great visibility at high speeds and longer service life due to primarily to even contact pressure. Aerotwin flat Wipers can be retrofitted on vehicles with conventional hook type wiper arms. The Aerotwin Plus wiper blades come with 4 adapters and each wiper blade fits 10 different wiper arms 6 more than with the existing Multi-Clip.


The company's new AeroEco wiper blades offer an aerodynamic spoiler, which fights blade lift off at high speed and severe weather conditions, with a a high quality, ozone resistant rubber blade that is graphite coated for superb wiping performance. The tension spring in the new range provides consistent tension pressure and fits to all kinds of curved windshields. Best of all - more OE sets can be replaced with just 11 AeroEco singles, thereby reducing warehousing cost and increasing profitability.
