[QUOTE="Scottinva, post: 211462, member: 4987"] The only glued on UHMW that I have heard of was 1/8" which will help for sliding off rocks, but not for impact. Rockproof and Snyder install it and both screw it. Snyder just uses screws and Rockproof may use a sealant also. My boat leaked at a few of the screws the first two times out, and after that, never leaked again. Mine is only 3/8 thick and I wish I would have went with 1/2". From what I have heard, you need at least a 1/8" bottom or you will not have enough threads - 3/16 bottom is best. Scott [/QUOTE]
