Abstract
A windshield wiper boot made by blow moulding a thermoplastic elastomer. The selected thermoplastic elastomer advantageously does not absorb moisture and will not stick to itself, thereby obviating the need for a release agent wash. The blow moulding process results in a boot of superior finish and permits the boot to be formed with a thickened saddle area where it is fastened to a windshield wiper superstructure for connection to a wiper arm and also to carry identifying logos and the like.
