The key is following the instructions and particularly the bulb edge test. Mine ended up being Bulb edge down. I read mixed reviews with trouble shutting the tail gate after install. Looking at the pictures for my make and model and I can see they were installed it incorrectly. I also used a light to make sure I got a very complete seal. With mine I am using tonneau cover I did both the bottom edge and 90% up the side edges of the tail gate frame. In the end I only wish i had done this sooner it does exactly as I needed. Review: Works w standard ram tailgate - This product worked perfect for my 2017 ram 1500 standard tail gate . Had it installed in 20 minutes super easy . 100% sealed from moisture and dust . Pre fit a small piece first to verify location left / right to fill in gap then install . Larger pieces used for upper corners cut to fit . I also cut small pieces for minor gap at bottom of tailgate . Highly recommend - ps glue is very strong ## Features - NOT universal (see VEHICLE SPECIFIC KITS below).

There is also a vehicle specific Ford kit that uses 2 less cut pieces, search ASIN: B0B5Y9MFCK **Q: How long is the whole roll? The description says 8x8x1. Is that inches feet or other?** A: I believe it should state 8'x1"X1". It's 8' long and the tubing is about 1" wide and 1" deep when not compressed. **Q: Anyone installed on a 2022 ford f150 reg bed? installed a bak 4ks rolling cover and water gets in near tailgate section** A: Yes, this one does work, but you can eliminate 2 cut pieces by using the Tailgate Seal with Taper Seal for Ford vehicle specific kit, search ASIN: B0B5Y9MFCK. The install directions can also be found at TailgateSeal.com **Q: How do you double it up for large gaps? guessing you put the seal on each mating surface? needed for a 2004 f250 super duty.** A: This kit will work as it contains a piece of large tailgate seal (not pictured). This was recently added so that it can seal all pickup tailgate configurations that are not listed on TailgateSeal.com. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works incredibly well when installed per the instructions *by R***D on August 12, 2026* I now have had time to test this and it has reduced the dust coming into the bed via the tailgate by 99%.

Highly recommend - ps glue is very strong ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Goes on easy, seals the gap. *by S***N on August 2, 2019* I put this on a 2018 F-150. There was enough with about 8" leftover. Online instructions were very good showing photos of where to put it. My bed liner is a Weathertech; very low profile/thin. Had to trim a bit off the tailgate liner to get piece that sticks to the tailgate to stick. Which reminds me, adhesion isn't all that you would think it should be. Duct tape will literally pull the paint off your truck. This stuff isn't as sticky as that. I was able to pull it back off in a couple spots to correct mistakes, even after pressing in place very firmly. There are a couple spots on the Ford where the stripping doesn't completely seal the gap. In those spots the instructions show you put the strip on the side of the bed with the bulbous side toward inside, then put a piece, instructions suggest a length, on the tailgate facing the other way. The two bulbs seal against each other. I'll have to wait and see how the pieces on the tailgate hold up. Strikes me every time I drag something across there it will tend to knock the tailgate pieces off. We'll see. Instructions say the piece along the bottom is supposed to be even with the floor of the bed. If you do that the stickum will be half on and half off where the floor is bent over the facing (space btw tailgate and bed). I installed this one so the stickum was flush to the bottom of the bed piece, fully on the facing. It ended up about 3/8" below the floor. Closing it this seems to seal just fine and hopefully it will stick better than straddling the two pieces. Closing the tailgate is a bit stiffer requiring a determined effort; to be expected. Hoping that will conform to shape after being closed for a while. Helpful tools were heavy duty and sharp scissors, a silver Sharpie, and measuring tape or ruler. The suggested measurements are very close, however in one case I cut the two pieces 2.75", then ended up taking them back off and making them 3.5". Measure twice, cut once! ## Frequently Bought Together - ESI Ultimate Tailgate Seal with Taper Seal 10ft for use with Truck Caps and Tonneau Covers - ESI Super Cap Seal XL 20 FT (2 1/8" Width x 1/2" Height x 20' Length) EPDM Rubber for Caps Over 200 lbs - XFasten Butyl Tape Black, 1/2 in x 30 ft x 1/8 in – Easy-to-Work-with Automotive Butyl Sealant Tape, Mess-Free Rubber Caulk for RV, EPDM Putty for Window, Headlight, Roof, Windshield, and Car Doors --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/12796024-esi-ultimate-tailgate-seal-with-taper-seal-10ft-for-use](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/12796024-esi-ultimate-tailgate-seal-with-taper-seal-10ft-for-use) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-08-29*
