TRICO Ultra Product Line Details

The TRICO Ultra line focuses on delivering beam-style wiper blades that offer consistent contact with the windshield through an infinite pressure point design. This ensures smooth wiping performance and reduces streaking. The 13-281 model benefits from this technology, combining a natural rubber blade with a plastic/steel frame and an aerodynamic spoiler to maintain stability at higher speeds.

Product Description and Features

The TRICO Ultra 13-281 wiper blade is engineered for specific vehicle fitment, ensuring compatibility with models such as the Aston Martin DBX and DBX707, Cadillac ELR, and Ford Edge, Escape, and Transit Custom. Its beam blade design eliminates the need for a traditional frame, allowing for better windshield conformity and improved wiping efficiency. The natural rubber blade material provides effective water removal without damaging the glass surface. The black plastic and steel blend frame offers durability while maintaining flexibility to adapt to windshield curvature.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

Installation Notes and Tips

The TRICO Ultra 13-281 includes adapters and requires the use of the Swift one-click adapter system, supporting pinch tab, push button (19mm and 22mm), and side pin (17mm) connection types.

Installation should be performed by aligning the adapter with the wiper arm connection and securing it until a click confirms proper attachment. Verify the blade length and fitment before installation to ensure optimal performance.
