The invention relates to a wiper blade for a window wiper, in particular a window wiper for a motor vehicle, comprising a wiper rubber (1) made from an elastomer material with a base section (3) and a lip section (5), wherein the elastomer material at least partially surrounds a fabric insert (13). The base section (3) and the lip section (5) are connected to each other by the fabric insert (13), wherein the fabric insert (13) serves as a joint (7), and/or a part (17) of the fabric insert (13) protrudes out of the base section (3) on the side facing away from the lip section (5). Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for producing a wiper blade, in which a fabric strip is guided through an extruder die in order to form a fabric insert (13), the fabric strip is surrounded by an elastomer material in order to produce an extruded profile, and the extruded profile is cut into individual wiper rubbers (1).
