TACO Marine Flex Rub Rail Insert, For V11-9970 SuproFlex, 15/16 in x 17/32 in, 100 ft

Overview

The TACO Marine Flex Chrome Insert is a 15/16" x 17/32" rub rail insert made for the V11-9970 SuproFlex rub rail. It finishes the rub rail profile with a clean insert surface while helping protect the hull-to-deck joint area from everyday contact at docks, pilings, trailers, and neighboring boats.

This insert is supplied in 100' coils, which helps on longer rub rail runs where fewer interruptions are preferred. The flexible format makes it practical for refits, replacement work, and boatyard installations where the insert needs to follow the existing rub rail shape around the boat.

Key features

• 15/16" height and 17/32" width for fit with the matching TACO Marine V11-9970 SuproFlex rub rail.
• 100' coil length supports continuous installation on many boat rub rail runs.
• Flexible insert format follows curved hull sections more easily than rigid lineal trim.
• Finish options cover chrome, Arctic White, and black for matching different hull and deck styling.
• Made in the USA and backed by a 5-year limited warranty.
• Installs without tools when used with the compatible SuproFlex rub rail profile.

Variants

This rub rail insert is offered in three finish configurations for the same 15/16" x 17/32" profile.

The listed variants share the 100' coil length and are built around the same insert size. The main difference is the visible finish, which affects how the rub rail looks once installed on the boat.

• V12-9980CP100-1: Chrome finish. This finish gives the rub rail a polished trim look that works well when the goal is to refresh or match chrome-style exterior detailing.
• V12-9980WHA100: Arctic White finish. This finish blends naturally with many white hulls and deck edges where a more subtle insert appearance is preferred.
• V12-9980BKA100: Black finish. This finish creates a darker trim line that can suit boats with black accents, darker hull graphics, or contrast rub rail styling.

Installation and fit

Check the existing rub rail profile before ordering, since this insert is sized for the V11-9970 SuproFlex rub rail. The 15/16" x 17/32" dimensions matter for retention and appearance, especially on replacement jobs where an old insert has shrunk, cracked, faded, or pulled free from the rail.

During installation, the coil format helps the insert feed along the rail around the sheer line and curved sections. For best results, the rub rail channel should be clean before the insert is pressed into place so the new trim can seat evenly.

Use cases on board

This insert is a good match for owners, yards, and refit crews replacing worn rub rail trim on boats already using the compatible TACO Marine SuproFlex profile. It is also useful when updating the boat’s exterior finish during cosmetic restoration, especially where the rub rail remains serviceable but the insert no longer looks right.
