Windshield wiper arm

dwkerch1 · Apr 15, 2010

Anybody know where and/or how to purchase pantograph action windshield wiper arms that fit a 3/8" motor post. My boat is a 1987 Marine Trader. I found "THE"*arm on a Taiwan manufacturer's web site but can get no response from the company? The original arm was made by Wuusong in Taiwan.

Hamilton Marine http://www.hamiltonmarine.com/ carries pantographs, and I am sure there are other companies. Don't know about the post size.

You may find this supplier to be good.

In the US, Fisheries Supply in Seattle (on-line catalog at http://www.fisheriessupply.com/ carries several brands of wiper arms, blades, etc, including AFI and Vetus. West Marine also carries some brands of pantograph wiper arms including AFI. We put an AFI all-stainless pantograph arm on the center windshield section of our boat and have been very happy with it. The Vetus arms might be better made but they're also a lot more expensive.

FF,
Yep In have been finding Defender really good to deal with.
I can purchase items (mostly smaller items up to about 10 kg) from them in the US and have them delivered to Australia in a week and still save considerable dollars on the equivalent Aus purchase.

Thanks to all, but I found the original source for the wiper arm. For anyone in need it is TopEarth Products in Taiwan; e-mail joyce@topearth.com.tw which is the link to the original WuuSong group that produced the windshield wiper arms in Taiwan for most Taiwan built trawlers. Thanks for the help.
