Read, and be sure before ordering. Great idea…..This product is not compatible for trucks that have a “sprayed in liner” in their box

The sticky tape and liquid to help stick it down only works so-so. I had to supplement it with some of my own sticky stuff glue to stick it down. Flat surfaces work best.My bed liner has a "waffle" surface that made it a little more difficult to make it adhere to the truck. I would buy it again but would start out knowing that I would have to supplement the way it sticks down.

Previous version worked great. This one is performing as advertised. Just be sure to follow the instructions and you won't have any problems.

This bridges the gap from the tail gate to the deck nicely. Cleaning the box is a lot nicer without have most of the dirt and particles fall between the gate and onto the bumper. Also keeps the dust out of the hinges.

Company reached out to direct me to install videos before it arrived. Went on easy with some trimming to fit. Pretty straight forward and took less than 30 minutes. AND IT WORKS! Gravel road dust is no longer an issue.

We just installed the strip. It was easy to install and sturdy. We will see what happens in the future.

I had been trying to figure out how I could cover that gap when I haul debris because I hate it when small stones, mulch, leaves and small items such as screws or something fall down in that gap. It can be destructive to a tailgate. I have the GM multi-flex tailgate and it would cost an arm and a leg to replace if it was damaged. This adhesive when directions are followed, sticks instantly and strong to even a bed that has a spray in bed liner. I was skeptical, but proven wrong. Clean it twice with soap and water, use the prep pads, use the activator that looks like a paint pen and press it into place. Be careful if you are going to follow the contour because it will fall short at the side. We’ll see how it holds up over time but even if I had to install a new one every year or two, it still beats cleaning out the gap constantly. My picture is hardly professional but look closely and you will see it following the bed-liners contours.

I installed this but removed it. I could not slide anything into the bed becaues the rubber would grab it. When I removed it now I have black rubber strips on my bed and tailgate. NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!

2017 F150. Fits and looks and works great. I got many loads of limestone rocks recently and this helped a ton from getting rocks and dust jammed between the bed and tailgate and also stops all that from getting inside the tailgate theu the bottom wire hole. My only concern is the thickness and durability. I am careful to not hit it with a shovel when unloading rocks, dirt, mulch, etc but you never know. Happy so far for the price.

Had it on for a few months now and it seems to work great. No problem with adhesion - but I do have a bed line that that goes underneath. Even molds to the ridges/valleys in the truck bed pretty well.Not perfect in the corners so it doesn't fully seal, but it does all the way across the tailgate and folds up well.

I had ROK Block for years on my previous F150 truck and I loved it. We do a lot of gardening and it helped a lot with the handling of loose stuff like mulch and yard refuse, which where we are, must be taken to the dump. When recently I switched to a new 2019 Ford Ranger, I went again for ROK Block, but this time I had to go for the wider 7" version because the tail gate gap the Ranger has is much wider than the F150.The installation was easy. Cleaned the edges of the sprayed bed liner with soapy water/plastic brush. Once dried, a paper towel with alcohol to get any greasy stuff left. Then, because I did not want to come up crooked or uneven, I pre positioned the band and placed some masking tape as guide for the gluing process. From that point, used the activator and glued one edge at a time starting from the center. One way or another, it does not seem to be a critical job.I have had it installed for a couple of weeks and it does the job! One detail of interest is that when closing the gate, the band folds neatly under the gap.
