Hello Aiadan, thanks for reaching out. The Caliber 3" V-Type Bow Roller # CA82AJ is made of a Thermoplastic Polyolefin and TPO is generally considered more durable and better at holding up to the elements than PVC or rubber. The TPO does especially well in cold weather and salt water so it will be a solid option for you.
