It is designed to work on both curved and flat windshields, using extra squeegee \"claws\" along the blade that spread pressure evenly across its full length so the blade conforms to the curved glass found on many helm windshields rather than skipping or chattering across it. The wiping edge is a marine grade silicone squeegee, chosen for its resistance to UV exposure and saltwater compared to standard rubber squeegees, helping it maintain a clean, consistent wipe over repeated use offshore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade uses a pinch tab mounting type and is a universal fit, making it a straightforward swap for boat owners replacing a worn or cracked wiper blade. Marinco recommends replacing wiper blades approximately every 6 months to maintain maximum wiping performance, since UV and saltwater exposure break down squeegee material faster than typical automotive use. The all stainless steel frame resists corrosion better than painted or plastic-cored blades, which is important given the marine environment this blade is built for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marinco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34018S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel Wiper Blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless steel frame with silicone squeegee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinch tab\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Universal fit (curved or flat windshields)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 wiper blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Replacement Interval:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every 6 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the Marinco 34018S fit a curved boat windshield?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Marinco 34018S 18 inch wiper blade is designed to work on both curved and flat windshields.
