Purchased a pair of generic 1" rubber standoff tips fpr the swim ladder and they showed signs of cracking from the get go.

Anyone here have better luck? recommendations?

Black ones should last longer than white. The black coloring used in plastics and rubber does a better job of UV protection.

I found two 1" diameter crutch tips at my local second hand store. Cost a buck.
