Tip #5: Durability due to strong materials Bed caps and bed rails are both built to last. Bed caps, which thrive on durability to combat the harsh conditions of the top of your truck bed, use either a plastic composite material or sheet metal such as stainless steel or aluminum. They're specially crafted to last without fading, denting or otherwise losing their looks. Pure steel tubing is the material of choice for bed rails, as these sturdy center supports are the anchor point for your heavy loads. Thanks to their all-steel construction, bed rails have the capacity they need for holding any load in place. Thick-wall tubing is used for the center bar; cast steel for the ends.

For the ultimate in protection and looks, the combination of both bed caps and bed rails is without a doubt the way to go. One of the leading manufacturers of top notch truck bed products is Putco. Putco bed rails can be found online at AutoAnything.com.
