Company & Product Profile
NINGBO XINHAI AIDO continues to manufacture this proven design, applying modern production standards to enhance its longevity. Our process includes multi-stage cleaning, phosphating, and electrostatic painting of the iron frames to maximize corrosion protection, addressing the traditional weakness of this design.
We offer this product to serve price-sensitive markets, owners of older vehicles, and applications where extreme durability and simple maintenance are valued over aerodynamic aesthetics.
Application Fields
- Replacement for older vehicles originally equipped with metal frame wipers.
- Commercial fleet vehicles, taxis, and trucks where low per-unit cost and easy, partial replacement (rubber only) are key considerations.
- Markets with severe winter conditions where the robust frame can withstand the physical abuse of clearing packed snow and ice.
- As a highly economical and reliable choice for basic transportation needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Are these prone to rust like old-fashioned wipers?
- A: While the core material is steel, our manufacturing process includes a zinc phosphate pretreatment that inhibits rust formation, followed by a baked epoxy paint layer. This provides substantial protection against corrosion from road salt and weather, far exceeding the protection on older, cheaper versions. However, if the paint is deeply scratched, underlying steel may be exposed.
- Q: Do they make more wind noise than modern blades?
- A: At very high speeds (over 110 km/h / 70 mph), the exposed frame can generate more wind noise compared to a smooth, frameless design. For typical city and highway driving, the difference is often minimal. Their primary advantage lies in durability and cost, not ultra-quiet operation.
- Q: How do I change just the rubber refill?
- A: Usually, the refill is held by small metal clips or end caps. You slide the old rubber out from one end (sometimes after releasing end caps) and slide the new refill in, ensuring it’s seated in all the yoke clips. Instructions are specific to the frame design but generally require no tools.
