How to Choose an AFI Wiper Arm

Wiper arms are available in Standard, Deluxe, and Premier styles and
the primary construction material in all AFI wiper arms is stainless steel.
Standard arms are used with Standard blades and can only be used
with the line of Standard motors, while the Deluxe arms are used on
Standard and Heavy-Duty motors. When choosing arms (and blades) it
is very important to use only the recommended lengths for the motor
that you are using.

The arms are available in a wide range of sizes, in both black and
stainless steel finish, and regular and pantographic models. Pantographic
arms use a set of two arms joined together to give a flatter
and somewhat wider sweep pattern. The Deluxe arms are offered in
either with a polished stainless steel finish or a black powder-coated
finish. Premier arms are the top of the line product in this category,
utilizing heavy-duty stainless steel tubing and components, and they
can only be used with the Heavy Duty and Heavy Duty Plus motors.
Premier arms come in adjustable length sizes, ranging from 10” to 30”,
in both regular and pantographic versions. The longer length Premier
arms (25” – 30” long) have been designed for added strength and have
a tapered wiper shaft fitting made especially to fit the larger, more
powerful AFI-3.0 wiper motor. These arms also have a saddle style tip
for a stronger connection with the longer length Premier blades (26”,
28”, and 30” lengths).
Premier arms are also available as “wet arm” versions, with the water
hose and sprayer nozzle built into the wiper arm. All that is needed is a
water delivery system that the arm can be tied into. For those wanting
a windshield washer system for the Deluxe arms, there is a complete
washer kit system that is made especially to fit the Deluxe arms.
