AP Products 96" Wiper Combo 31/32" Channel Fit AP Products 018-3014-96 -- RV Wiper Blade 2-1/2" Insert and Bulb Combo, 96 Inch Length

Restore streak-free visibility on your Class A motorhome or large coach with this AP Products replacement wiper blade insert and rubber bulb combo. Designed specifically for the wide, high-clearance windshields found on full-size RV chassis, this 96-inch combo set replaces your worn wiper rubber without requiring a full arm assembly swap.

Full-Length Wiper Replacement Built for Big Rigs

Factory wiper blades on Class A motorhomes take a beating -- they cover enormous windshield surface area, run in all weather, and are often ignored during routine maintenance until streaking, skipping, or chattering makes driving hazardous. AP Products 018-3014-96 is a direct-replacement insert and bulb combo engineered for the 2-1/2 inch wide wiper channel used on most full-size RV and coach wiper arms.

At 96 inches total length, this is a bulk/combo format intended for cutting to length or direct application on large-format wiper arm assemblies. The 31/32 inch channel profile locks into standard RV wiper blade carriers without modification. Both the insert (the rigid backing spine) and the bulb (the flexible wiping rubber) are included, so you get a complete renewal of the wiper element in one package.

Insert and Bulb Combo

Includes both the rigid wiper insert spine and the soft rubber wiper bulb -- everything needed for a full wiper element replacement.

31/32" Channel Profile

Sized for the standard 31/32 inch wiper arm channel used on most Class A motorhome and coach wiper assemblies.

2-1/2" Blade Width

Wider 2-1/2 inch format provides greater windshield contact area and improved wipe coverage on large coach windshields.

96" Total Length

Full 96-inch combo length accommodates large windshield spans or can be trimmed for precise fitment on your specific coach.

What Is an Insert and Bulb Combo?

RV wiper blades on Class A and commercial-style coaches are typically constructed in layers. The outer arm assembly (the metal or plastic carrier with the pivot hardware) is bolted to the wiper motor drive. Inside that carrier sits the wiper insert -- a rigid backing element that distributes pressure evenly across the blade. Pressed into the insert is the wiper bulb -- the soft rubber strip that actually contacts and wipes the glass.

Over time, both the bulb and insert wear, deform, or crack. Replacing only the bulb sometimes leaves a warped insert behind that causes uneven pressure and streaking. The AP Products 018-3014-96 combo replaces both components together, restoring proper geometry and a fresh wiping edge at the same time.

Complete Renewal in One Part
Because both the insert spine and rubber bulb are included, you eliminate the guesswork of sourcing them separately. Replacing both together ensures uniform pressure distribution and consistent wiping contact across the full blade length.

Fitting and Installation Notes

This blade combo is designed for wiper arm carriers with a 31/32 inch channel opening and a 2-1/2 inch blade profile. These dimensions are standard on many full-size Class A motorhome wiper assemblies, including those found on Freightliner, Spartan, Workhorse, and similar chassis commonly used under Tiffin, Fleetwood, Monaco, Coachmen, Winnebago, Holiday Rambler, and other major coach brands.

  • Verify your existing wiper arm channel width is 31/32 inch before ordering -- measure the slot opening in the carrier, not the overall blade width.
  • Measure your current wiper blade from tip to tip to confirm 96 inches is appropriate for your coach, or that trimming to your required length is acceptable.
  • Slide the old rubber bulb out of the insert channel first, then slide the insert out of the arm carrier if replacing both components.
  • Lightly clean the wiper arm channel and pivot points before installing fresh elements -- grit in the channel causes premature wear on new rubber.
Class A Chassis Fitment
This AP Products wiper combo is engineered for the large-format wiper systems used on Class A motorhome chassis. It is not intended for Class B vans, Class C cutaway chassis, or passenger car applications, which use narrower blade profiles and different channel sizes.

When to Replace Your RV Wiper Blades

Most RV wiper blades should be inspected at least once a year and replaced when any of the following are present:

  • Streaking or smearing even after windshield is clean and wet
  • Chattering or skipping across the glass during operation
  • Visible cracking, splitting, or hardening of the rubber bulb
  • Squealing at low wiper speeds
  • Uneven wipe pattern leaving dry bands across the windshield
Maintenance Tip
UV exposure degrades wiper rubber faster in RVs that are stored outdoors or in sunny climates. If your rig sits in direct sun for extended periods, inspect blades every six months rather than annually. A quick wipe-down of the rubber with a damp cloth removes road film that accelerates cracking.

Important Information
  • Verify your wiper arm channel measures 31/32 inch before purchase -- this combo will not seat correctly in narrower or wider channels.
  • Confirm total wiper blade length required for your coach. At 96 inches, this is a full-length combo intended for large windshields or trimming to fit.
  • Wiper arm assembly, mounting hardware, and wiper motor are NOT included. This part replaces the insert and rubber bulb only.
  • Do not operate wipers dry on a dirty windshield -- this accelerates wear on new rubber and can scratch glass.
  • Inspect the wiper arm carrier for corrosion or bent pivot tabs before installing new elements. A damaged carrier will cause premature wear even on new blades.
