The new heavy-duty wiper blade is made with a synthetic squeegee that is designed to withstand the elements and to provide a smooth, chatter-free wipe, the company said. The wiper blade also has a galvanized steel frame that provides long-lasting durability and protection against corrosion, and is also designed to apply even pressure.

As with all blades, it is recommended that drivers check their wiper blades every six months and change them at least once a year. The Rain-X Heavy Duty wiper blade comes in sizes ranging from 13 to 24 in., and will fit 96% of the medium- and heavy-duty truck market. For additional information, visit www.rainx.com/.
