Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the wiper blade is sold with mounting brackets or adapters that form a complete wiper arm assembly
A wiper arm assembly, including the blade, may be classified as a part of a motor vehicle rather than as a standalone wiper.
If the wiper blade is a rubber refill without the metal or plastic frame
Rubber refills alone are classified as articles of vulcanised rubber, not as complete windscreen wipers.
If the product is a replacement rubber element for a wiper blade
Replacement parts for windscreen wipers are classified under the parts heading for electrical lighting or signalling equipment.
