Superior Impact Protection System
The SuproFlex technology represents a breakthrough in marine fender design, utilizing advanced co-extrusion techniques to create a rub rail with two distinct hardness levels. This innovative construction provides:
Dual-Hardness Engineering
Rigid Structural Backing
The harder backing material maintains structural integrity and provides secure mounting to the hull while resisting deformation under load.
Soft Impact Face
The softer front durometer absorbs impact energy while protecting both your vessel and approaching docks, pilings, or other boats.
Shock-Absorbing Channels
Integrated channel design within the rub rail structure enhances impact resistance by distributing force across a larger area.
Simplified Installation Process
Traditional rub rail installation often requires extensive pre-forming, significant heating, and multiple installers. The SuproFlex system revolutionizes this process with its ultra-flexible design that conforms naturally to hull contours.
Installation Benefits
- No Pre-Forming Required: Eliminates time-consuming template creation and pre-shaping procedures
- Minimal Heating Needed: Reduces energy requirements and installation complexity
- Reduced Labor: Single-person installation possible for most applications
- Universal Fit: Adapts to most hull shapes without custom modification
- Seamless Precision: Creates professional-grade finish with tight, consistent fit

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes SuproFlex different from traditional vinyl rub rails?
SuproFlex features co-extruded vinyl construction with two different hardness levels - a rigid backing for structural integrity and a soft front face for impact absorption. This design requires minimal heating, no pre-forming, and is significantly lighter than traditional alternatives.
How much heating is required during installation?
SuproFlex requires minimal heating compared to traditional rub rails. The ultra-flexible design allows it to conform to most hull shapes with just gentle warming, significantly reducing installation time and energy requirements.
What size boats is this 80-foot kit suitable for?
This 80-foot SuproFlex kit is designed for boats up to 65 feet in length. The generous length allows for complete coverage with extra material for trimming and fitting around complex hull areas.
Is the chrome insert flexible enough to follow hull curves?
Yes, the V12-0307CP flex chrome insert included in the kit is specifically designed to maintain flexibility while providing the metallic appearance. It bends and flexes with the rub rail without cracking or separating.
What warranty coverage is provided with this rub rail kit?
TACO Marine provides a 5-year limited warranty on the SuproFlex rub rail system, covering manufacturing defects and material failures under normal marine use conditions.
Can this rub rail be installed by a single person?
Yes, the lightweight design and minimal heating requirements make single-person installation possible for most applications. The flexible nature of SuproFlex eliminates the need for multiple installers to handle and position the material.
