What types of wiper blades are there?

There are two main types of wiper blades you can have either standard or flat wiper blades, the model of your car will dictate which type you have.

Standard wiper blades have a small rubber strip attached to a metal holder and usually match the original wiper blades that came with your vehicle. Conventional wiper blade design with four windscreen pressure points

Flat wiper blades
Flat wiper blades, on the other hand, sit lower on the windscreen and put more pressure on the glass. This provides a better-wiping motion and offers less air resistance, which keeps noise down when you’re travelling at faster speeds. They’re also a great replacement for standard wiper blades.
