Taylor Made P Shape Edge Guard 10 ft Black | 45994 — Product description
Taylor Made's P Shape Edge Guard is the black trim you wrap around a raw edge so it stops chewing up gear and knuckles. Ten feet of double-molded coil, three inches wide, screw or nail mount. Got an exposed hatch lip, a transom cut, or a console edge that needs finishing? This is the piece that cleans it up.
The Taylor Made P Shape Edge Guard is a simple piece of gear that solves an annoying problem. Anywhere you've got a raw or sharp edge on the boat, this black molded trim slips over it and takes the abuse instead of your knuckles, your dock lines, or your dry bags. The name comes from the cross section. Look at it end-on and it reads like the letter P, a rounded bulb up top with a flat leg that seats against the surface.
It's double molded, so you get a firmer body that holds its shape paired with a more flexible face that hugs the edge. The coil runs a full 10 feet, and the material is 3 inches wide, which gives you plenty to work with on a wide flange or a thick transom cut. You mount it with screws or nails, not adhesive, so once it's fastened down it stays put through spray, sun, and the pounding a boat takes.
Where does it go? Think exposed hatch openings, storage compartment lips, the cut edge of a transom or splash well, console corners, anywhere fiberglass or metal has been trimmed and left with a hard edge. It finishes the look and, more to the point, it stops that edge from chafing lines, scratching gear, or catching a shin at the worst possible moment. The black keeps it low key so it blends into most rigs.
A couple of honest notes. This is the screw or nail mount version, so you'll be drilling small pilot holes and fastening it down, not just pressing it on. Measure your run before you order. Ten feet covers a lot of hatches, but a long rub line or a big deck perimeter might need more than one coil. And it's cut trim, so plan your corners. A sharp utility knife and a little patience gets you clean miters.
Taylor Made has been building marine trim and hardware for decades, and this edge guard is the kind of unglamorous part that just does its job. Fasten it right and you'll forget it's even there, which is exactly what you want from an edge guard.

Frequently asked questions
What is a P shape edge guard?
It's protective trim named for its cross section. End-on it looks like the letter P, a rounded bulb over a flat leg. The leg seats against the surface and the bulb caps the raw edge so it can't chafe lines or catch on gear.
How does it mount?
This is the screw or nail mount version. You drill small pilot holes and fasten it down rather than pressing or gluing it on. That's why it holds up to spray, sun, and a pounding hull without letting go.
How much do I get in one coil?
A full 10 feet in a single coil, and the material is 3 inches wide. Measure your run first. A long rub line or a full deck perimeter may need more than one coil.
Can I cut it to fit?
Yes. It's cut trim, so a sharp utility knife handles length and corners. Plan your miters before you start and take your time on the corners for a clean finish.
Where on the boat would I use this?
Exposed hatch openings, storage compartment lips, the cut edge of a transom or splash well, console corners, anywhere fiberglass or metal has been trimmed and left with a hard edge.
What color is it?
Black. It's a low-key finish that blends into most rigs and hides scuffs, so the trim disappears into the boat instead of standing out.
