Hey Charlie!

According to CE Smith, their Deluxe Marine-Grade Bunk Carpet # CE11372 has a weight of 16.1 oz per square yard and a pile height of 5/32".

It does have a durable backing designed to be stapled directly to your bunk boards. I recommend using stainless steel staples along the underside of the boards to prevent rust.

What kind of trailer are you working on?

@Charlie i installed this product on my boat trailer bunks last summer I used stainless steel staples but I went one step further I coated the new bunk boards with spar urethane before I stretched the carpet over them and they turned out great no issues after a year. Hope it helps. Happy boating.
