[ Rain, Snow, Dust ] there are a lot of things that weaken your sight when driving. So the only thing which helps you during such difficult times is a wiper. Though it is a small part when compared to the entire vehicle it plays a major role in driving with harsh weather conditions. So every vehicle has a set of wiper blades.




            Everything, these days, has an upgraded version of it. The same goes with the Wiper blades there are many technologies used in improving the usage of wiper blades in an efficient and comfortable way.

One such thing is a Frameless Wiper Blade. So let's see how it differs from the Conventional Wiper Blade.


  • As the name says the Conventional wiper blades have a frame to which holds the wiper flat against the windshield. And the Frameless( bracketless /spineless) wipers do not have any frame.

  • Conventional wiper blades have many parts/components such as frame, levers, springs, claws which losses their efficiency as time passes and gives less lifetime of wiper blade but the Frameless wiper blades do not have as many components/ parts as the conventional one, which leads to prolonged life of the wiper blade.





  • In spite of mainstream thinking, precipitation and snow aren't the lone things that influence your vision. The breeze does, as well. High-velocity winds make more air resistance, frequently called "drag". Thus, drag "lifts" conventional blades away from the windshield. This is known as wind lift. As your wiper blades lose contact with your windshield this also results in less efficiency But in the case of Frameless wiper blades they stick to the windshield and create more pressure.



  • Comparing the cost; Conventional Wiper blades have a lesser cost and ease of availability than Frameless wiper blades. This is the reason why many car manufacturers use Conventional Wiper Blades over any other type.


  • Conventional wiper blades are placed flat onto the windshield which is less efficient whereas the Frameless wiper blades are made curved which are very close to the windshield at every point and equal pressure which helps in better cleaning.
