Mounted along a rail or edge, the strake creates a smooth, rounded surface so mooring and dock lines glide past instead of wearing against a sharp or textured edge, reducing line wear and the risk of a line failing from abrasion over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis rub strake is 3\/4 inch wide and constructed of stamped 304 stainless steel, which resists corrosion in saltwater and marine environments while holding up to repeated contact from lines under load. It installs with #8 flat head fasteners (fasteners not included), allowing a low-profile, flush-mounted finish along the rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 055412-1 is the 12 inch length in the Sea-Dog Line rub strake series, which is also offered in 8 inch, 18 inch, and 24 inch lengths to match different rail spans and boat sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sea-Dog Line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 055412-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304 stainless steel, stamped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e #8 flat head (fasteners not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.162 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 035514055048\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the Sea-Dog Line rub strake 055412-1 used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It protects dock lines, fender lines, and anchor lines from chafing against cap rails, gunwales, and similar edges on a boat by giving the line a smooth surface to run against.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is part 055412-1?\u003c\/strong\u003e This rub strake measures 12 inches long and 3\/4 inch wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the rub strake made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made of stamped 304 stainless steel, chosen for its corrosion resistance in marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre mounting fasteners included with 055412-1?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The rub strake installs with #8 flat head fasteners, which are not included and must be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat other lengths does this rub strake come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e Besides the 12 inch version (055412-1), Sea-Dog Line offers this rub strake in 8 inch, 18 inch, and 24 inch lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the rub strake corrosion resistant?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the stamped 304 stainless steel construction of part 055412-1 is corrosion resistant, making it suitable for saltwater use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the 12 inch rub strake weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part 055412-1 weighs 0.162 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this rub strake fit both port and starboard sides?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, this rub strake is a straight strip design and is not side-specific, so it can be mounted on either side of the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the rub strake installed?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 12 inch Sea-Dog Line rub strake is mounted with #8 flat head fasteners along a rail or edge where lines contact the boat; fasteners are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the UPC for the Sea-Dog Line 12 inch rub strake?\u003c\/strong\u003e The UPC for part 055412-1 is 035514055048.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sea-Dog","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988544696539,"sku":"S-D-055412-1","price":12.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/7484_56a3878d-c755-4492-aa3a-dc3e074839ec.jpg?v=1784421894","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sea-dog-055412-1-stainless-steel-rub-strake-12-in-x-3-4-in-chafe-guard-for-cap-rails-and-gunwales","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
