Which Side Typically Wears Out on Velcro, the Hook or the Loop Side
Published 12/06/2016
Question:
What is the most common failure on these covers, hook or loop portion of velcro? My cover is not staying attached and I dont know if the entire top needs to be replaced or just the hook portion on the rails?

Typically its the loop section of a Velcro strip that wears out before the hook side as the hooks are made of a harder material. The part # TX1115174 that you referenced comes with both sides though.
