Description
The Hella Metal WP45 boasts a frame construction and measures 450 mm for enduring performance.
The replacement blade delivers a durable alloy structure with articulated pressure points, engineered for precise downforce on complex windshield shapes. The synthetic EPDM wiping edge is securely bonded in a precision slot, delivering a consistent sweep across the arc. Refill-compatible design and multi-vehicle fitment make it a reliable pick for older models. It delivers 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 guarantees dependable performance, clear visibility and lasting value at an affordable price.
