Old World Automotive OTV261 26 Inch Optix Wiper Blade

Product Description

The OLD WORLD AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCT OTV261 is a 26-inch frameless flat wiper blade engineered for consistent windshield contact across the full sweep arc. The curved blade profile distributes pressure evenly from end to end, eliminating streaking and skipping on both flat and curved windshields. Frameless construction removes the exposed metal frame found on conventional blades, preventing ice and snow from packing into the superstructure during cold-weather operation. The aerodynamic spoiler reduces wind lift at highway speeds, keeping the blade seated against the glass at higher velocities. This blade ships in a package quantity of 10 units, making it a practical stocking item for shop or fleet use.

The OTV261 is suited for passenger vehicles, light trucks, and SUVs in residential and commercial fleet service applications. The EZSnap multiple-connector system is designed to cover 98 percent of vehicle fitments, reducing the need to stock multiple adapter kits. Installation requires no specialized tools and is performed at the vehicle windshield during routine maintenance or seasonal changeover. Service technicians, fleet maintenance crews, and detail shops are the primary installers of this blade type.

Installation Notes

Wiper blade replacement is a general service task performed by automotive technicians and fleet maintenance personnel. Before removing the old blade, position the wiper arm away from the glass to prevent it from snapping back against the windshield. Follow the connector engagement sequence specified in the included EZSnap instructions to ensure the adapter is fully seated and locked before cycling the wipers. Inspect the wiper arm tension and pivot condition at the same service interval, as worn arm springs reduce contact pressure regardless of blade condition.
