This is the complete set of replacement foam side rails for a Sleep Number® FlexTop split-head bed — the firm foam frame that surrounds the air chambers and gives your mattress its supportive perimeter and seating edge. Available for FlexTop Queen, King, and Cal King. Over time these rails compress and soften, so the edges feel weak and you roll toward the middle. This set rebuilds the entire perimeter so your bed feels solid and supportive again, without touching the air chambers, pump, or cover you already own. Made in the USA.
FlexTop Queen, King & Cal King
Complete perimeter set
2.6 lb density
85 ILD — firm edge
6" or 7" heights
Optional center rail
What you get
The complete set includes all four perimeter rails — both side rails plus the head and foot rails — cut to your FlexTop size. These are a higher density with a better seating edge than the originals: 2.6 lb density and a firm 85 ILD for stronger, longer-lasting edge support. You simply cannot go wrong rebuilding the full perimeter at this level of quality.
Which size do I need?
Choose the size that matches your FlexTop mattress. All three are split-head configurations with the same 34" head split, so the rail set is built the same way in each size — only the dimensions change.

Should I add the center rail?
FlexTop beds split at the head so each side articulates independently on an adjustable base. Many setups use a center rail down the middle for extra support between the two air chambers. If your bed has one now (or you want that added center support), choose Center Rail: Yes. If not, choose No for the standard four-rail set. Not sure? Call us at 610-327-2322 and we will help you confirm.
Which height should I choose?
Your rail height should match the height of your air chambers so the perimeter sits even with the chambers — most FlexTop beds use 6" or 7" rails. Measure your current rails (or your inflated air chamber height) and match it. Not sure how to measure? Our guide to measuring your Sleep Number bed walks through it, or call us at 610-327-2322.

Rebuilding the whole bed?
New rails restore the perimeter, but if the comfort layer over your air chambers has also worn out, replace it at the same time for a complete refresh. Choose your feel from our FlexTop split-head comfort foams, all available in Queen, King, and Cal King: soft, medium (closest to original), or firm regular foam, cooler-sleeping gel memory foam, natural latex, or an egg crate topper. Browse everything in our FlexTop Split-Head collection or the full Sleep Number repair parts collection.
Frequently asked questions
What are foam side rails?
They are the firm foam frame around the air chambers that gives your mattress its supportive edge and shape. When they soften, the edges feel weak and unsupportive; replacing them rebuilds the perimeter.
Which FlexTop sizes do you make?
FlexTop Queen (60" × 80"), FlexTop King (76" × 80"), and FlexTop Cal King (72" × 84"). Select your size when you add to cart.
Do I need the center rail?
FlexTop beds split at the head, and many use a center rail down the middle for added support between the two chambers. Choose Center Rail: Yes if your bed has one or you want that extra support, or No for the standard four-rail set. We are glad to help you confirm — call 610-327-2322.
What height should I order?
Match your rail height to your air chamber height so the perimeter sits even with the chambers — most FlexTop beds use 6" or 7". Measure your current rails or inflated chamber height to confirm.
Will this fit my bed?
