Line-x or rhino line?

Bo Daggart · Dec 28, 2016

Which is the preferred brand? I'd love to hear from people that have had both.

From my knowledge the Linex is harder feeling while the Rhino has a more rubbery texture.

The Linex is considered more durable, but only if you're really subjecting it to a lot of abuse.

You won't go wrong with either choice.

Rhino on one truck. Line-x on the next two. I'll never go back to rhino... Too soft. But I use my truck as a truck. I haul gravel, cobbles, bark, and other material that gets offloaded with shovels. The Line-X is much more resistant to cutting. On the new truck I've added a 3/4" stall mat that I trimmed up for a custom fit. A bit of cushion for my poor old knees when I need to crawl around back there, or for my truck camper, when it is on the truck.

Thanks guys. Looks like Line-x is the way to go. I'll be using a rubber mat or a bed rug over the spray in.
What about the LED bed lights? The extra thickness of the spray in doesn't prevent them from being put back in does it? I'm assuming they take them out before spraying and not just tape them off

They were removed and reinstalled. No problem, looks great.

For what it's worth, I've always been told both products are great as long as the prep is done right. That's my concern; I've seen mediocre reviews for the line-x dealer close to me.

I have had really good luck with Onyx.
Put it 14 trucks at work and my personal truck.

Ask for the Product Technical Data Sheets.

LINE-X is stronger than Rhino.

LINE-X has a tear strength of 490 psi and Rhino (Tuff Grip and Hardline) is 225 psi.

There never should be a question, LineX or bust. Have had so many liners in twenty years of trucks, LineX in the last 3 and I will never use anything else. The only thing to consider would be bed rug, but for spray in liners if it aint have an X in it, it is just wrong. LineX will never peel, everything else does. You can cut it iff you try, but I shovel the hell out of loads repeatedly and I have one cut when I stupidly tried to shovel against the lines.

I did spray liners for several years. Mine was similar to Line-x, and it was tough ****. We sprayed many industrial applications, and not just truck beds. Rhino sucks.

What does OEM use for its' spray in bedliner? I checked my Equipment Listing based on my VIN it states "Spray in bedliner". Based on the descriptions above, I would assume it's Line-X.

Line-x..

Gump · Dec 29, 2016

It's similar to line-x.

This is what I've read...

But that it is applied at about half the thickness of line-x.

And it does not carry the lifetime warranty that Line-X does..

Line x my last truck and rhino in this one. Either are solid especially if the prep is done right. I had both my last two trucks done by the dealer.

Bed Rug

RAM and Ford ( do not know about Chevy ), use a proprietary spray in liner that is used with an adhesion promoter to stick. They do not scuff prep the bed like Line-X and Rhino do for their spray in products.

If you google around a bit, there is videos showing how these OEM spray in liners can be pulled off in sheets once one corner or spot of the liner can be gotten under and then pulled up. How real world applicable that is, who knows? Just the OEM spray liners are not as durable as the aftermarket ones are.

Line X is a better process on edges and is unbeatable in my opinion. I will say it is is hard so not friendly for knees if you need to be crawling around in there. I have been planning on getting a rubber mat to go over the top.

I just had a rhino put in my ram...I do heavy hauling etc in my ram and the stuff I was hauling gauged the liner and messed it up...I ended up having to buy a Mat to put on top of it....Go with linex
