This is for a wiper aboard a ship. The original holders are flat aluminum and are 31" long. The rubber inserts have dry rotted over the years. A bulk roll of wiper blade material would be ideal. I just can't find any place that sells this rubber insert material in bulk.

These replacement blades are for a 31" wiper. Your run of the mill recreational boater supply stores have all been looked at and don't offer this type of item. This will have to be a large distributor of custom manufactured goods.

No there isn't something that will make them last any longer with out compromising the effectiveness of cleaning. Wiper blades are supposed to be replace at least once a year and maybe 2 times a year. Do yourself a favor and buy the factory refills from the dealer or buy Rain-X wiper blades. I have purchased just about every blade there is from the cheapo store brand to the triple edge. For my money nothing has worked better or lasted longer than the Rain-X blades. They worked so well I started selling them in our parts department. Every once in a while I'll get a customer that has a blade that is jumping or streaking, and it usually turns out to be a bent wiper arm or worn out spring on the wiper arm.

Why not just go to a marine store such as West Marine? I'm sure they carry replacement wiper blades.
