Trico 16-2213 NeoForm Wiper Blade with Teflon - 22"

Product Details

Trico NeoForm wiper blade is the next generation of wiper technology. This wiper is designed with a jointless structure and has only three main components, the connector, the wiping element or rubber, and the one piece spring steel beam. The result is a constant, even pressure across the entire windshield for a smoother more consistent wipe. Trico Neform blades use Teflon in the resin to improve the smoothness of the wiping surface and to insure longer lasting performance. Neoform outperforms traditional blades in snow and ice and resists snow and ice clogging for excellent performance all year round. Especially good in for cars and trucks with noisy or chattering wiper blades. NeoForm blades quiet problem wipers and are easy to install. Most installations are accomplished simply and easily with no tools or just a small screwdriver to remove the old blades. Instructions are easy to follow and are printed right on the insert in the package, pictures and descriptions are easy to understand and follow. The adaptor for most applications is already installed on the blade in the package, no fumbling or trying to figure out parts or extra pieces. Late model owners will love the pre installed adaptors which fit the newest unique wiper arm connectors found on Toyota, Ford, Mercury,Chevrolet, GMC, Nissan, Volkswagon, Audi, BMW, Land Rover and other import and domestic vehicles. Neoform universal blades will fit most car and truck makes and models with easy pre installed connectors that are designed to work with all wiper lengths from 16-28 inches. NeoForm is a great choice for an original equipment replacement or an upgrade from an existing wiper blade.

Adequate OEM replacement. Nothing more. - Theseus - Louisiana
In my search for the perfect wiper, I have only found one brand that really stands out as head and shoulders above the rest. PIAA. Unfortunately, they don't currently make wipers that fit the new style wiper arms on the 07-present GMC Sierra (and many other newer cars). That's a shame, because I can't seem to find truly superior blades from any other manufacturer. With the Trico blades, the search goes on.

The blades fit well, and the connecting mechanism is pretty good so that I don't have to worry about them coming loose from the wiper arm, unlike the Bosch blades I had immediately before these. Aside from this, though, these are fairly standard and unimpressive blades no better than the OEM blades.

The biggest problem they have is chatter. They love to bounce across the windshield making that loud drumming sound as they go. This will happen in anything less than a steady rain. So road mist or sprinkling results in intermittent, loud noise. My windshield is cleaned regularly, so it's not a matter of a thin layer of dirt triggering the oscillations in the frame. It seems to be that the blade material is sub-par, possibly just too inflexible. The material in the Bosch blades did a much better job in this regard, though the connector was poorly designed on those.

In moderate or heavy rain, they perform adequately. The colder it is outside, though, the worse they seem to do. Again, it seems that the material stiffens up too easily (sub 40 degrees, it seems). I've had these on for less than a month, though, but I'm already looking for something else.

Let's call their performance as a blade average, their noise as poor, and their cold tolerance as below average based on 4 weeks of use in a mix of snow and rain.
