During the summer, outdoor temperatures are high, and car wiper blades left outdoors for extended periods tend to age rapidly. One reason is that the rubber strip becomes gummy where it contacts the glass. A simple support bracket can protect this contact surface; with a full‑arc edge design, even if you forget to remove it before driving, there’s no risk of damaging the glass. Available in two lengths to suit your needs, the shorter black version offers excellent concealment, making it less likely to be noticed by passersby.
