Purpose and Fit for Mercedes Vaneo W414

The arm has been engineered with the rear body area of the Mercedes Vaneo W414 model in mind, taking into account the geometry of the tailgate and the shape of the window. The appropriately selected length and profile of the arm enable effective water removal from the critical area of the rear-view mirror's field of vision, improving safety during maneuvering and reversing. The dedicated mounting allows for installation in place of the original part without the need for modifications or adapters.

Construction and Performance Parameters

The rear wiper arm operates on the hinge axis of the tailgate, therefore its construction must ensure adequate rigidity while maintaining smooth movement. The integrated lever with a joint and a pressure spring (built into the arm's structure) keeps the blade in constant contact with the glass, reducing the phenomenon of skipping at higher speeds. The precisely selected working angle allows for optimal window cleaning without excessive strain on the wiper's drive mechanism.

Function in the Rear Wiper System

In the rear wiper system, the arm acts as a link between the drive shaft and the blade, transferring the motor's torque into an arc motion. A correctly selected arm:

• ensures stable blade guidance across the glass surface,
• maintains even pressure along its entire working length,
• minimizes noise and vibrations during operation,
• reduces wear on the blade and the drive mechanism.

This provides the driver with a clear view in the rear-view mirror, which is particularly important when driving in rain, snow, or on dirty roads.

Characteristics of a Used Part

The offered wiper arm is a used part, meaning it comes from a dismantled vehicle and may show signs of wear typical for this category of parts. However, it retains its functionality in terms of mechanical operation and compatibility with the wiper mechanism. Choosing an original used arm is a cost-effective solution that allows for maintaining factory fit and wiper operation geometry within a reasonable budget.
