TACO Marine SuproFlex Rub Rail End Cap, For V11-9970, Large, Type-316L SS, Mirror Polish

Overview

The TACO Marine F16-0276 is a large stainless steel SuproFlex end cap for finishing the stern end of a TACO SuproFlex V11-9970 rub rail installation. It gives the rub rail a clean termination point and helps keep the insert seated at the end of the rail, which matters on boats where dock contact, washdowns, and vibration can work on exposed trim edges over time.

This end cap is made from Type-316L stainless steel with a mirror polish finish, so it matches bright stainless trim hardware and suits exposed exterior locations. It is sized for the large SuproFlex application and uses a #8 screw for mounting.

• Uses a #8 screw for installation.
• Covered by a 5-year limited warranty.

Compatibility and fit

This part is for the SuproFlex V11-9970 rub rail profile. It should be matched to that rail before ordering, especially when replacing only one end cap on an existing installation, since rub rail profiles can look similar but vary in shape and insert fit.

Installation and use

The end cap is used at the stern end of the rub rail, where it covers the exposed rail end and helps secure the insert. During installation, align the cap cleanly with the rail profile before fastening, and use the correct #8 screw type for the hull material and mounting surface.

It is a practical replacement part for refits, rub rail repairs, and new SuproFlex installations on boats where a clean stern finish is needed without changing the full rail system.

Materials and finish

Type-316L stainless steel is a strong choice for exterior trim pieces that see spray, dockside moisture, and regular cleaning. The mirror polish finish gives the cap a finished appearance that blends well with stainless cleats, rail fittings, hinges, and other polished hardware around the transom.
