TACO Marine SuproFlex Semi-Rigid Vinyl Rub Rail Kit, 1-5/8 in x 7/8 in x 60 ft, Vinyl Overlay Insert

Overview

The TACO Marine Semi-Rigid SuproFlex Small Rub Rail Kit is a 60 ft replacement rub rail kit for small 15 to 22 ft boats, including bass boats, fish boats, and bay boats. The profile measures 1-5/8 in x 7/8 in and combines a semi-rigid backing with a 95-durometer front face, giving the hull edge a rub rail that can take everyday dock contact while still being manageable during installation.

This kit uses a co-extruded vinyl construction with shock-absorbing channels and a flexible vinyl overlay insert. It comes in one continuous coil, requires no pre-forming, and needs only minimal heating, which helps when working around the bow, stern corners, and the changing radius of smaller hulls.

Key features

• 60 ft continuous coil supports a cleaner installation around small boat hulls with fewer transitions.
• 1-5/8 in x 7/8 in profile suits many compact rub rail replacement projects on 15 to 22 ft boats.
• Co-extruded vinyl has two levels of hardness, with a semi-rigid back and a 95-durometer front face.
• Shock-absorbing channels help the rail manage common contact from docks, pilings, and trailer handling.
• Flexible V12-9992 overlay vinyl insert is included with the kit and is matched to this rub rail profile.
• Predrilled rail saves layout time and helps keep fastener spacing consistent during installation.
• Stainless-steel end caps and screws are included for a finished installation at the rail ends.
• Made in the USA and backed by a 5-year limited warranty.

Variants

This SuproFlex Small rub rail kit is offered in two color configurations. Both variants use the same 60 ft length, the same 1-5/8 in x 7/8 in profile, and the same included F16-0039 stainless-steel end caps.

The difference between the variants is the rub rail color and the matching insert color. That choice affects how the rail blends with the hull, deck cap, or existing trim.

• V11-9991BBK60-2: Black rub rail with black insert. This configuration gives the hull edge a darker trim line and works well where existing hardware, graphics, or rub rail sections are already black.
• V11-9991WWK60-2: Arctic White rub rail with Arctic White insert. This configuration keeps the rub rail visually lighter and is a natural match for many white hulls and deck caps.

Installation and fit

The semi-rigid back gives the rail enough structure to sit cleanly along the hull-to-deck joint, while the continuous coil format keeps the installation practical for a full perimeter replacement. The rail is predrilled for fasteners, so the main fit checks are the profile size, the 60 ft required length, and whether the existing mounting surface can accept this shape.

For best results, compare the 1-5/8 in height and 7/8 in width against the original rub rail profile before ordering. This is especially important on older boats where the rub rail may be covering a hull and deck seam, previous fastener holes, or cosmetic repairs.

Use on board

This kit is a good match for boat owners refreshing a worn or damaged rub rail on a smaller fishing boat, bass boat, or bay boat used around docks, ramps, slips, and trailers. It is also useful when a refit needs the rub rail and insert replaced together so the finished edge looks consistent from bow to stern.
