Collection: Bumpers/Guards

Dock Edge and Davis Instruments cover dock and hull protection from different positions. Dock Edge builds out the dock side with PVC profiles in torpedo pipe, straight, and corner shapes, plus full-face rolls for longer runs and kits that bundle sections together. Their Protect HD bumpers add thickness for heavy boats or busy docks, while Oceanus and Ultragard cushion styles offer a softer surface. Davis Instruments handles the boat side with removable chafe guards that attach to rails and lines.

Before buying, decide where the contact is happening. For dock-side coverage, match straight sections to flat edges and corner pieces to direction changes. Rolls and kits work better for larger installs than ordering individual pieces. The torpedo pipe bumper wraps around a round rail while flat-face profiles sit against a dock board, so check the rail shape before ordering. Boaters who move between slips will find the Davis chafe guards more versatile, since the guards travel with the boat rather than staying at a fixed dock.
