Product Review
Installing Kevlar Felt Skid Plates is a simple way to protect both the bow and stern of your canoe from shoreline impact and strikes on submerged rocks. The Felt Store uses a para-aramid needle felt that protects your craft against abrasion. The material's inherent strength comes from its ring-like molecular structure and the way the fibers are tightly knit together. Our skid plates are sold in pairs and tapered from 4 inches to 2.5 inches wide along a 30 inch length.
We recommend you install the plates with epoxy resin (not included).
