TACO Marine Flex-Core Rigid Vinyl Rub Rail, 1.58 in x .635 in, 60 ft, Frosty White

Overview

The TACO Marine V21-9959WHC60D-1 is a Rigid Vinyl Flex-Core Rub Rail for replacing or upgrading the protective rail around a boat’s gunwale. It measures 1.58" x .635", comes in a 60' length, and has a Frosty White finish that suits many fiberglass hull and deck profiles.

This rub rail uses a solid rigid PVC cap stock over a lightweight high-density inner core, giving it the look and impact behavior of a rigid vinyl rail while making it easier to handle during installation. The continuous coil format helps reduce butt joints around the gunwale, which is useful when a cleaner run and smoother bends are important.

It is a practical fit for boat owners, yards, and refit shops working on rub rail replacement for boats up to 40 feet. The matching S11-4511 insert is required and sold separately, so it should be planned into the installation before starting the job.

Key features

• 1.58" x .635" rigid vinyl rub rail profile in Frosty White for a clean exterior finish around the gunwale
• 60' continuous coil helps reduce butt joints and supports a smoother one-piece installation
• Solid rigid PVC cap stock with a lightweight high-density inner core for easier handling and shock-absorbent impact resistance
• Cold-forming capability helps the rail follow common hull and deck contours during installation
• Vacuum-calibrated profile supports tighter dimensional tolerance and more consistent sizing
• Pre-drilled and countersunk for #8 screws on 8" centers to simplify fastening layout
• Requires S11-4511 insert, sold separately, for the finished rub rail assembly
• Made in the USA and backed by a 5-year limited warranty

Installation and fit

This rub rail is built for installations where a long, continuous run matters, such as gunwale protection on center consoles, runabouts, fishing boats, and other fiberglass boats within the stated size range. The 60' length should be checked against the full perimeter of the boat, including transom corners and any overlap or trimming needed during fitting.

The rail is drilled and countersunk for #8 screws on 8" centers, which helps keep fastener spacing consistent along the hull. Heat may be needed when forming tighter radiuses, especially around corners or sections with more pronounced curvature.

Compatibility and finishing details

The S11-4511 insert is required to complete the assembly and is not included with this rub rail. Confirm the insert, end treatments, fasteners, and any bedding or sealant requirements before installation, especially when replacing an older rail where existing hole spacing or hull shape may not match exactly.

The Frosty White finish gives the rail a traditional look for light-colored hulls and decks. It works well for refits where the goal is to restore protection at the hull-to-deck joint while keeping the boat’s exterior profile neat and consistent.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
