Probably, every experienced motorist who spends a long time on the way, knows that the key to preventing an accident is to ensure optimal visibility. The smallest thing is to do for this - to maintain the purity of the glass of your car. In this question, the wiper brushes are the most important component. However, how to choose the right wipers? After all, this car element must best cope with their responsibilities. This topic will be devoted to this article.

Automotive wipers, why are they needed

The wiper brushes, referred to as janitor, are an unchanged attribute of any modern vehicle. They give the opportunity to see the road in various weather conditions. Many drivers probably came across a problem when ahead of the vehicle in the rainy weather was so much polluted windshield, which would be unsafe in the absence of janitors. To date, no car leaves the conveyor without wiper brushes.

Wiper brushes when they need to be changed

The easiest of the owners of janitors with the wear indicator - a special square or round shape on the brush body, which is made of special paint. It is located so to always be a noticeable driver. When installing the wiper on the vehicle, you must remove the protective film from the indicator. Gradually, under the influence of ultra-purple rays, weather conditions and other factors that affect the wear of the brushes, the indicator changes in color, which indicates the need for the replacement of janitors. The wear indicator is not capable of exposed to the technical fluid fiber fluids, damage when storing or transporting. However, the indicator does not perceive mechanical damage to the rubber ribbon or brush, so it is not always able to objectively reflect the condition of janitors.

In addition, signs of wear of the wiper brush are perfectly noticeable on the windshield of the vehicle. They will give you the opportunity to determine when you need to replace brushes.

1. Luling windshield car.
2. The emergence of large untreated areas.
3. The appearance of crude vertical stripes on the glass.
4. The appearance of narrow strips in the windshield.

Automotive wipers, what type they are

In the modern world, the automotive element market is actually overflowing with a variety of types of glass brushes, which differ in structure, price and working material. The main representatives can be attributed - hybrid, frameless and frame wipers. They are also summer and winter. Winter brushes are distinguished by greater elasticity, which is due to the use of soft rubber. Specialists advise in the frost time of the year to install frameless wipers on the vehicle.

It is worth saying that when choosing car brushes, the following criteria must be taken into account:

1. Price category.
2. The quality of the materials from which the tape is made.
3. The corresponding length of the left and right brushes.
4. Universality of the fastening design.

Frame wipers, dignity and disadvantages

Frame wipers are classic. Their design is the most common. The density of the adjunct brushes to the windshield provides a systematic operation of the rocker with hinges. The axis and bushings of the data of wiper cleaners are made of the most common material - plastic. With this, the degree of icing material is significantly reduced, even with the lowest temperature indicators, the ice without difficulty.

Their price category is quite small, as a result of which they are available for most motorists. But, the service life of cheap janits is very small. Already some time after the acquisition, their functional abilities are reduced, the creak is heard, there is a loose flexibility to the glass, and, therefore, the dirt stripes appear.

Frameless wipers, pros and cons

The cabinet form of frameless janitors resembles a spoiler, which is made of plastic and rubber. There are two thin metal plates inside it, which tightly hold the rubber blade, which, in turn, comes into contact with the glass and thus produces cleaning. The ends of the "Frameless" are equipped with plastic plugs, and in its center there is a mounting bracket. This reduces the sensitivity to icing. During the active work, the data of the janitors are actually silent. The immediate plus of frameless janitors is the permissibility of the replacement of the rubber blade, as a result of which they are particularly economical. The average cost of such janitors is 1200 rubles.

Hybrid Wipers, Dignity and Disadvantages

Hybrid wipers have a special design that is adjusted to any shape of glass and provides a dense fit to it. This is a kind of "mixture" of plastic spoiler and devices of hinges with a rocker. The difference between hybrids from classic janitors is a significant smaller frame height.

These wipers have several advantages:

1. Long service life.
2. Cleaning quality.
3. Tight fit of the rubber blade.
4. The effect of the aerodynamic wing.

When creating hybrid wipers, the best materials are used. Without the slightest errors, they are able to effectively fulfill their functions throughout the year, when the classic models of janitors are out of order after three months.
