A: Each order includes one (1) individual 12-inch rub guard piece. If you need multiple pieces to cover a longer section of your hull or multiple contact points, simply adjust your order quantity accordingly before checkout.

Q: What is the exact length of this marine rub guard?

A: The rub guard measures approximately 12 inches (30.48 cm) in length. Please note that a manual measurement tolerance of 1–2 cm may apply, so we recommend measuring your installation area carefully and confirming the fit before ordering.

Q: What types of boats or applications is this rub guard suitable for?

A: This 316 stainless steel rub guard is suitable for a range of vessels including sailboats, motorboats, and yachts. It is ideal for hull-side trim placement, docking and mooring contact zones, refit projects, and replacement of worn or damaged rub strip hardware along the boat side.
