Questions & Answers
What buyers ask about Autotex.
Is Autotex the only brand Wiper Express carries?
Autotex is the flagship, but Wiper Express also carries Clix for quick-connect applications. Every brand is sourced to specification and stocked at Wiper Express.
Are Autotex parts OE-equivalent?
Yes. Every Autotex arm, blade, and motor is validated against OE specifications for fitment, sweep pattern, and operating range. If it carries the Autotex name, it drops in and performs like the original.
What is the 4R Platform and why does it matter?
The 4R is a self-contained, configurable wiper motor system built around a 1/2" drum pivot shaft. One platform covers three shaft lengths (1.5", 2.5", 3.5"), both 12V and 24V, seven field-adjustable wipe angles from 40° to 120°, and a park direction that swaps without replacing the unit. Twelve SKUs cover what used to require dozens. Specifiers and fleets pick the shape that fits the vehicle, we handle the rest at the part number.
What's the difference between HD71, HD72, HD74, and HD78?
HD71 is a stainless narrow-saddle flat blade for flat windshields. HD72 is the narrow-saddle flex variant, built with an all-steel frame for curved windshields on trucks, transit buses, and motorcoaches. HD74 is the jumbo hook HD+ with universal adapter hardware, covering medium and jumbo hook arms plus saddle mounts. HD78 is the bolt-on saddle with the broadest length range in the line, 12" through 46", shipping with new nut, bolt, and width-extending adapters.
