PVC Bolt-On Bunk Board Guides, 8 Pack","description":"\u003cp\u003eTie Down Engineering Bunk Slicks are bolt-on molded PVC guides designed to attach directly to carpeted bunk boards on a boat trailer. The molded PVC creates a smooth, low-friction surface across the top of the bunk board, letting the hull glide on and off the trailer with far less drag than carpet alone, which reduces the effort needed at the ramp and cuts down on wear to both the bunk carpet and the hull's gelcoat over repeated launches and retrievals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach Bunk Slick measures 1-3\/4 inches wide by 17 inches long, and this package includes 8 pieces, enough to outfit a full set of trailer bunks. They bolt on directly over existing carpeted bunk boards using standard hardware, so installation does not require replacing the bunk boards themselves. Because they are designed to work with any standard bunk board, they are a straightforward upgrade for trailers that currently rely on carpet-only bunks and are seeing slow or difficult loading, sticking, or accelerated carpet wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tie Down Engineering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86170\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-3\/4 inches x 17 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.74 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bolt-on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Any standard carpeted bunk board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned to bolt onto any standard carpeted bunk board; not limited to a specific trailer make or model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are Tie Down Engineering Bunk Slicks used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e Bunk Slicks (part number 86170) are bolt-on molded PVC guides that attach to carpeted bunk boards on a boat trailer, creating a smooth surface that reduces friction so a boat slides on and off the trailer more easily.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many Bunk Slicks come in this package?\u003c\/strong\u003e This package of part number 86170 includes 8 PVC Bunk Slicks, enough to cover a full set of trailer bunk boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size are these bunk guides?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each Bunk Slick in kit 86170 measures 1-3\/4 inches wide by 17 inches long.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill Bunk Slicks fit my trailer's bunk boards?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, Tie Down Engineering Bunk Slicks are designed to work with any standard carpeted bunk board, so they are not limited to a specific trailer make or model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material are the Bunk Slicks made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e They are molded from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), which provides a smooth, low-friction surface over the carpeted bunk board.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you install Bunk Slicks on a trailer?\u003c\/strong\u003e Bunk Slicks bolt directly onto existing carpeted bunk boards, so installation does not require removing or replacing the bunk boards themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo Bunk Slicks replace the bunk board carpet?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, part number 86170 bolts on top of the existing carpeted bunk board rather than replacing the carpet; it adds a smooth PVC glide surface over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color are the Bunk Slicks?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 86170 Bunk Slicks are black.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does a package of Bunk Slicks weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e A package of 8 Tie Down Engineering Bunk Slicks (86170) weighs 1.74 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre there other Bunk Slick sizes available?\u003c\/strong\u003e Tie Down Engineering also offers Bunk Slicks in a 3 inch x 16 inch size sold in a 10 pack, in addition to the 1-3\/4 inch x 17 inch, 8 pack version covered here (part number 86170).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy would I add Bunk Slicks instead of just using carpeted bunks?\u003c\/strong\u003e Carpet alone creates more friction and can grip the hull, making loading and unloading harder and wearing the carpet faster; the PVC surface of the 86170 Bunk Slicks reduces that friction for smoother, easier trailer loading.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tie Down Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991711822043,"sku":"T-D-86170","price":31.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/T-D-86170_lg__27678.1558134561.500.750.jpg?v=1785188111","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/tie-down-bunk-slicks-86170-pvc-bunk-board-glide-ons-for-boat-trailers-1-3-4-in-x-17-in-8-pack","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
