The strip measures 18 inches long by 2-3/4 inches wide and conforms to the keel line. Prep matters: if you have used 303 products on the hull it may not stick, and the maker says to clean with acetone, not alcohol, before applying.
Specs at a glance
- Size: 18″ L x 2-3/4″ W
- Material: Thick rubber
- Prep: Clean with acetone, not alcohol
Good to know
- Clean the hull with acetone before applying, and skip alcohol, which the maker warns against.
- If you have treated the hull with 303 products, strip it off the area first or the protector may not hold.
KayakDIY take: Protecting the keel is worth it if you launch from rocky or gravel spots. For more options, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
