It covers exposed rub rail fasteners and gives the rail a cleaner edge while adding a soft PVC contact surface where the boat may meet docks, pilings, trailers, or another vessel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is a practical replacement when the original rub rail insert is cracked, faded, missing, or pulled out of the track. Match the 1-3\/16 in height and 1\/2 in width to the existing rub rail profile before ordering, and confirm the required length around the hull so the installation can be completed with as few seams as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible vinyl insert for compatible rub rail profiles that accept a 1-3\/16 in x 1\/2 in insert.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft PVC construction helps cushion light impact at the rub rail contact point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers rub rail fasteners for a finished look along the hull side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 50 ft, 70 ft, and 250 ft lengths to suit partial repairs or full rub rail insert replacement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor options include Black and Arctic White, depending on the selected length.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible form supports installation around curved hull sections without heat in many typical replacement jobs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in multiple length and color configurations. The insert profile remains 1-3\/16 in x 1\/2 in across these variants, while the roll length and finish color change by part number.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack is available in shorter service lengths and a long 250 ft length, while Arctic White is available in a 70 ft length for boats that need a lighter rub rail accent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV12-4144BKA50-1: 50 ft length, Black.

The Arctic White finish fits boats where a lighter insert better matches the hull, deck, or existing trim.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit depends on the rub rail channel, not only the boat brand or model year. Before installation, compare the old insert cross-section with the 1-3\/16 in x 1\/2 in profile and inspect the rail track for bent sections, old sealant, broken fasteners, or debris that could keep the new insert from seating properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a cleaner result, lay out the run before pressing the insert into the rail and avoid stretching the vinyl during installation. On replacement work, a continuous length can help reduce visible joints, especially along exposed hull sides where the rub rail is most noticeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is a good match for owners restoring the appearance of an aging rub rail, replacing damaged insert after dock contact, or refreshing trim during a larger hull and deck refit. It is also useful for service yards that need a flexible replacement insert in common marine colors and practical coil lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TACO Marine","offers":[{"title":"50' \/ Black","offer_id":52581987877045,"sku":"QBP459400-V1","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"70' \/ Black","offer_id":52581987909813,"sku":"QBP459400-V2","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250' \/ Black","offer_id":52581987942581,"sku":"QBP459400-V3","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"70' \/ Arctic White","offer_id":52581987975349,"sku":"QBP459400-V4","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1335699_qbp459400.jpg?v=1780202122","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp459400","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
