Developed using a frame construction, the SWF Das Original Rear 518 spans 400 mm to assure even windshield contact.
With its weatherproof construction, the 518 windshield wiper blade guarantees clear visibility from sub-zero temperatures to sweltering conditions.
The replacement blade showcases a sturdy steel skeleton with flexible rocker arms, engineered for even pressure distribution on curved glass. The high-grade polymer wiping edge is firmly anchored in a metal groove, delivering a consistent sweep across the arc. Easy-to-replace refills and universal compatibility make it a cost-effective choice for everyday vehicles. It incorporates a durable galvanized frame that resists corrosion and mechanical wear, a multi-pivot action that adapts to complex windshield curves and a simple rubber refill system that extends service life while reducing total cost of ownership. However, exposed hinges may freeze and clog with dirt during winter, at high speeds it can experience wind lift and increased noise, and natural rubber wears faster in sunlight whereas polymer composites command a higher price. Periodically clean and lubricate the hinges with a silicone spray every three to six months and replace the wiping edge every six to twelve months (or every four to six months in harsh climates). Perfect for mild weather, daily commuting and economical drivers, this blade assures dependable performance, clear visibility and lasting value at an affordable price.
