Product Description

Bracketless wiper blades, also known as beam blades, are designed without the metal or plastic brackets, joints or hinges of conventional wiper blades. So snow and ice have nowhere to build up. In addition, the patented design of Bosch Evolution features dual precision-tensioned steel springs that distribute more uniform pressure along the entire length of the blade for exceptional all-weather visibility.

Customer Reviews

High performance, high price
The Bosch Evolution wiper blade performs excellent. The wiper maintains full contact through the harshest downpours, and won't clog up with ice. It is easy to install, features quiet operation, and looks great. The downside of this wiper is definately the price, and it is designed to stay that way! The rubber insert (which is the only part that wears out)
can't be replaced. The symptoms of a worn insert are the same as with any wiper, chattering and skipping. When mine wore out, I took it apart (not easy) to examine the design, and found that it is obvious that the wiper COULD HAVE been designed to use replaceable inserts, but wasn't! Bosch's product designers certainly knew what they were doing: boost Bosch's profitability by designing an expensive wiper that must be completely replaced when it wears out!

Well designed part
This product serves it's purpose well. Here in the tropics we get intense sun, as well as frequent heavy showers and sometimes acid rain from the volcano. These seem to hold up well to all three.

Excellent in all weather
These are excellent wiper blades and I've now installed them on all my cars and my parents' cars, too. No streaks of course, but more than that is their excellent winter performance. The ice used to block up my old blades and make them useless, but this Bosch design somehow avoids that problem. Easy to install as well. I recommend them.
