Shock absorbers take the teeth out of docking obstacles
Closed-cell foam encased in a soft polyester textile cover protects your boat against contact damage. Unlike traditional vinyl or rubber, it won't squeak or mar, and the high-density foam will never leak or become flat. Polyester cover is UV-, dirt- and abrasion-resistant. Cleans easily. Large, flexible mounting tabs conceal upper fasteners. Flexible enough to mount on curves or around corners.
- Material: Polyester fabric/closed-cell foam
- Attachment Method: #8 or #10 screws and finish washers or nails
- Cross-Section Shape: D-shape
- Shock Absorption Mechanism: Foam padding
- Warranty: Three years
