Which is better, traditional wiper blades or beam blades?
1 Answers
From the perspective of wiping performance, cleanliness, and pressure application, beam wiper blades are significantly superior to traditional wiper blades. Additionally, during operation, they adapt to the curvature of the windshield without causing scratches on the glass surface. Below are the differences between traditional and beam wiper blades: 1. Traditional Wiper Blades: These rely on multiple pressure points to ensure close contact between the blade and the glass. However, this requires strong pressure from the wiper arm, which can lead to fatigue in the wiper motor. The advantage is their sturdy outer shell, but the downside is poor flexibility during use. 2. Beam Wiper Blades: The first advantage of beam blades is their lightweight design. The second benefit is their single pressure point support system, utilizing a flexible steel strip that ensures tight contact with the blade's edge. This allows effective glass contact with minimal pressure, resulting in thorough cleaning without excessive force on the glass.
