Champion - modern design wiper blades. They differ from their predecessors in improved design and materials. The manufacturer divided the Champion wiper blades into three lines: Aerovantage, Easyvision and Rainy day.
How to choose car wipers from Champion
Glass cleaning brushes are considered consumables, but if you buy quality wipers, they can last more than one season. The main indicator of their work is a transparent windshield, without water and streaks. To meet this criterion, auto brushes must be soft enough to follow the curve of the glass, but their rigidity must be enough to remove dirt.
By design, Champion wiper blades are:
- wireframe;
- frameless;
- hybrid.
The classic option is the frame wipers "Champion". They are cheaper, and their design provides a secure fit to the windshield without gaps at the edges. The cleaning part can be removed and replaced separately, which is an added advantage.
Champion wiper blades
Wiper blades "Champion" on the frame have a number of disadvantages. Wear of the connecting elements leads to the appearance of noise, a drop in the quality of cleaning. Due to the large area of the structure during movement, such wipers are unevenly pressed against the glass, leaving a layer of moisture. In sub-zero temperatures, they often freeze over, which also reduces the quality of their work.
Champion frameless wipers are more aerodynamic, and the absence of joints in the design reduces noise during operation. They do not block the view, their height is lower. A spoiler is located along the entire length, which provides a better fit at high speeds, improving the quality of glass cleaning. The disadvantages of the frameless Champion wiper blade include its cost.
In the hybrid model, the frame is dressed in a spoiler made of plastic panels. They increase the pressing during movement at high speed, do not allow a gap to form between the glass and the canvas. Like frameless wipers, these wipers are curved for better contact with the glass.
