Bosch adds wipers, expands alternator line

Dec. 23, 2013

Robert Bosch LLC has added a new wiper blade program for heavy duty vehicles and 50 part numbers to its remanufactured alternator line.

This new wiper blade program offers 85% coverage of Class 3-8 heavy duty vehicles on the road in the U.S. and Canada, including applications for widely-known domestic and import makes and models such as International, Peterbilt, Kenworth, Mack, Ford, Nissan, Volvo, Mitsubishi and more.

The program consists of 19 wiper blade part numbers covering 6.4 million heavy duty vehicles. Blade sizes available are 13- to 26-inch Bosch Direct Connect wiper blades and 16- to 26-inch Bosch Evolution beam wiper blades for driver as well as passenger sides.

“By introducing this wiper blade program for heavy duty vehicles, Bosch is bringing its long-standing experience in advanced wiper blade technology to yet another key market segment,” says Timo Reif, vice president product marketing.

The introduction of 50 new remanufactured alternator part numbers to the rotating electric product line adds coverage for Asian and domestic vehicles from model years 2001 through 2013. Applications include Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler.

“As these vehicles come out of the warranty period, they are prime candidates for service in the independent aftermarket,” says Reif.
