Description
Measuring 450 mm, the Valeo Silencio Rear VR6 features a frame-style assembly.
VR6 delivers universal, round-the-year durability—clearing away ice pellets, blizzard conditions, and road debris for a clear windshield on every drive.
The replacement blade showcases a robust metal frame with articulated pressure points, crafted to provide precise downforce on curved glass. The synthetic EPDM wiping edge is firmly anchored in a U-channel, delivering a tight seal across the arc. User-friendly blade swaps and wide model coverage make it a reliable pick for older models. It features 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.
