TACO Marine SuproFlex Large Dive Door Rub Rail End Cap, For V11-9970, Type-316L Stainless Steel, Mirror Polish

Overview

The TACO Marine F16-0277 is a stainless steel large dive door SuproFlex end cap for finishing a TACO Marine V11-9970 large SuproFlex rub rail at a boat dive door. It gives the rail end a clean termination point and helps keep the rub rail insert in place where the rail stops at the dive door opening.

This end cap is made from Type-316L stainless steel with a #8 mirror polish finish, making it a good match for exposed deck and hull hardware where spray, washdowns, and sunlight are part of normal use. It is a practical replacement or finishing piece for builders, refit yards, and owners working with the matching large SuproFlex rub rail profile.

Key features

• Fits TACO Marine V11-9970 large SuproFlex rub rail applications at boat dive doors.
• Type-316L stainless steel construction suits exposed marine trim and deck-level rub rail hardware.
• #8 mirror polish finish gives the end of the rub rail a clean stainless appearance.
• Large dive door end cap helps finish the rail opening and retain the insert at the rail end.
• Sold individually for replacement work or for completing a specific rub rail termination point.

Installation and fit

Before ordering, match the existing rub rail profile to the TACO Marine V11-9970 large SuproFlex rub rail. This part is specific to the large SuproFlex profile and the dive door end location, so it should not be treated as a universal rub rail cap for other sizes or rail shapes.

During installation, the cap should sit squarely against the end of the rub rail so the rail, insert, and dive door opening line up cleanly. On refits, check the condition of the surrounding rail, insert, and mounting surface before fastening the new end cap in place.

Use on board

This part is a good match for boats with side dive doors, boarding doors, or hull openings where the rub rail needs a finished stainless end at the break in the rail. It is especially useful when replacing worn trim, completing a rub rail repair, or finishing a new SuproFlex installation on a center console, walkaround, or similar saltwater boat.
