Time will tell, but the gasket and its adhesive seems to be of good quality. Due to the shape of the the 2021 Ram tailgate area, I was not able to seal any of the 4 corners... but hopefully got enough sealed to greatly reduce dust/water intrusion. Again, time will tell. I had about 18 inches left when done, so don't make any "big" mistakes.
This is the fourth truck that I have installed the tailgate sealer on. I have tried different products, but etrailer’s product seems to do the best job. The adhesive used on their product is superior ... it doesn’t slip out of place after extended opening and closing. Their product seems to be of a heavier rubber material and so far much more durable. While I haven’t abused it over an extended period of time, to date, I’m extremely satisfied with etrailer’s tailgate sealing product.
Easy installation and now my pickup bed with the camper shell doesn't get dirty when driving on dirt roads.
My rating is based on the fit only. This is a good quality seal, and the instructions are easy to follow. It arrived when it was expected to. It just did not fit my 2019 Ranger at all. This is due to the poor fit of the tailgate from the manufacturer, huge gaps. I had to get creative with the placement to make it work.
A year now post installation of the Tailgate Gasket and the gate seal has done the job I had hoped. Adhesive has withstood a cold winter and hot summer without de laminating or pulling lose it closed what was in some places a half inch gap. My shell enclosed truck bed stays dry in the most extreme rain conditions and dust/debris accumulation reduced to nearly nothing. An inexpensive fix to a annoying problem. Highly recommended.
grweat product easy to install do the j ob
Blocks about 80% of the dust. It is difficult to get a complete seal because of curves & gaps in the tailgate area (Toyota Tacoma 2018)
There was several areas that the seal didn't fit well because of things mounted to the truck bed. I had to cut the gasket and use smaller pieces to get around the object, this caused the gasket to not seal well.
Did not like did not stay on . Followed instructions not sure what problem was. Have one have not put on my other truck because of not staying on
Product was delivered in a timely manner. Cleaned all contact spots with alcohol before installation. This was on a 2018 Ford F150. Installation took about 20 minutes. Seemed to stick very well. As with most all pickup beds, to get a tight fit I had to double up the product near the top corners of the tailgate. Will have to see how that sticks moving forward. Not sure why no one makes a tailgate seal that is model specific. I know I would personally pay more for such a product. That being said, this is the best product I could find and I am very pleased with it.
Gregory P - 11/19/2018Does do what suppose to truck maker didn't do very good in aligning tailgate some gaps which took double to get closed for dust
The seal works in most areas of the tailgate. However, it does not seal near the top of the tailgate. My truck is a 2012 Chevy and has a curved area near the top where the tailgate latches. So, there still is a gap where the seal does not mesh up with the closed tailgate. Wish the material were made model specific. I am going to monitor how much dust will enter the box.
I recently purchased the rear bed and tailgate seal and was very pleased with your product, the instructions and quality. Thank you so much
Quality product. I have opened the tailgate hundreds of times in the last year and the seal looks new. Coupled with the Lomax tonneau cover, the truck bed stays clean and dry.
Great product. Easy to apply and keeps the snow and dust out. Your results depend on you installing it in the correct place. Don't expect the instructions to tell you precisely where, as truck tailgate designs vary. Do it right, and it works.
High quality, easy to install.
Hello George, Thank you for taking the time to contact me. The TailSeal is still firmly attached. I followed the installation instructions to the letter and it has not failed. My only disappointment is it does not keep all dust from entering the bed. I rarely go on gravel but it is occasionally necessary in Iowa. Dust comes into the bed about a foot from the tail gate. I did not expect the product to correct Ram's design flaw but hoped for an improvement. It improved but didn't eliminate the flaw. Still, given the price, I would purchase again. I'll just not set an uncovered cake within a foot or two of the gate. I don't like crunchy cake. Also, I don't use my truck for business. I'm a gentleman pickup owner, whatever that is. Again, I do truly appreciate customer service and etrailer is a fine example of it.
Customer service really good but shipping is a little slow not sure why
Great service delivered early
I bought my Flip Top truck bed cover from you and have been absolutely satisfied with the product. It was easy to install and is easy to use. I've had numerous people comment about how good it looks and how easy it is to use. Thanks for your service and attention to quality. In the future, if I need another product for my truck, you will be the first stop for finding that a product.
Definitely helped to keep dust out of the box.
Don S - 10/07/2020Purchased the tailgate seal for my 2014 Ford F-150. The seal needs to be thicker, or have an option to purchase a thicker seal, as I still get a lot of dust in the bed and the one I received doesn’t near seal the gap. I have a lid on my truck to protect from weather, but dust from backroads is still an issue.
Easy to install. Great adhesive - super sticky. The alcohol pads that came with it were dried out, but that was minor. Used soap and water first, then poured alcohol over a paper towel. Much easier to mark the placement of the gasket according to the instructions and then remove your tailgate all together. 10 minutes and done!
Seals out wind and water. I bought this product when purchasing a bed cover,but waited to install the tailgate seal. The bed cover is a flat style and when I hit highway speeds would start to tent in the center. After installing the tailgate seal,the cover stays where its supposed to.Sealing the tailgate has also almost eliminated tailgate rattle when hitting offroad.The only downside is that it takes a little more effort to close the gate but no tenting of cover and tailgate rattle is well worth the extra umph it takes.
Works well, needed more prep before installation, and a warmer day.
