NRS Launches Windshield Wiper Brakes

Using Galvanized, mechanical-attachment technology, the North American company has created the longest-lasting, quietest windshield wiper brakes in the world.

A leader in the aftermarket brake space, NRS Brakes has built a reputation for pushing the limits of innovation to remain ahead of market trends. Chances are, if you have landed on this page, you’re already familiar with the launch of our newest product, Windshield Wiper Brakes.

To ensure we reached the height of our target audience, we partnered with renowned automotive YouTuber, Chris Fix to showcase how one can go about changing their windshield wiper brakes.

NRS Brakes utilize patented mechanical attachment technology which alleviates the need to use adhesive to bind friction materials to the backing plate like they do in traditional brake pads. Furthermore, the galvanization process also does away with the need for paint, building a resistance to rust, corrosion and delamination. Visitors will be happy to note that the technology that has helped elevate NRS Brakes in the aftermarket space will also be applied to this new product application as well.

What is not a prank is the fact that Chris Fix has established himself as a charismatic online resource for car enthusiasts and auto-DIYers alike.

With nearly 10 million subscribers to his channel and over 1 million views on this video alone, we are thrilled to have collaborated with Chris once again.
