Wiper Blade

[Blue Eagle]

I have a 2006 Mainship 400 and am trying to find a wiperblade to fit the existing arm. Any suggestions?

I had the same issue last summer and just replaced the entire arm.

I am in the process of replacing my wiper arms as well, so that I can find suitable wiper blades more easily. IF you do find the wiper blades, buy a quantity of them so you don't have to search in the future.

For those replacing their pantograph arms, I've been very happy with the Roca W12 wiper arms I put on a couple years ago. They've held up well and they use standard automotive J hook wiper blades.

Got mine at West Marine. Only their stainless steel blades will lock into the arm without falling out.

That is a standard arm. Did you try O’Riles auto parts?

While the standard wiper blades I buy at the auto parts store have all the necessary parts to fit just about any attachment including the photographed one, I became dissatisfied with the loose fit and opted to modify the attachment to a "J" attachment. I removed the end part with the attachment points and welded on a J-type end fitting I bought online. Much improved setup.

i have the same pantogram arms on 2 boats. i've used wire ties to firmly secure wipers to the arm.

This was my experience as well. I tried multiple brands from auto parts stores, none of them really fit very well.

I looked this up this past summer, as my arms need to be replaced. The have black and SS options, but here's what I found to be a direct replacement, hope this helps...
