Talked to my buddy he said he got em from gander Mtn , my bad !!!
I buy lots of Teflon and my guess is these aren't Teflon but UHMW (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene). So ask for plastic boat skids. Teflon would cost over $1000. You need to heed all the warnings of others because UHMW has a lower coefficient of friction than Teflon when wet

Buddy said he launched and loaded his boat with no problems yesterday, said he loves em, I'm only giving his opinion because I haven't seen them or used them, don't know what there made of , he said Teflon , dono! But they are slick!
Looks good!
This is the product description on mine. Teflon infused.
E-Z Slide™ Trailer Pads make loading and unloading your boat a breeze. Molded from a slippery, TeflonŽ-infused composite to reduce friction as the boat slides on and off the trailer. Easily installs directly over carpeted bunks with stainless steel hardware included. Ideal for metal boats up to 4,000 lbs. and fiberglass boats up to 1,500 lbs. Not recommended for painted bottoms. Five-year warranty
Thanks for clearing that up!!Quote:
