You might want to have a look at Mar K's info site. They have a lot of info. on bed wood & strips.
Going from memory ( truck is at home ), curved portions sit above wood face approx. 1/8". Strips are about 1 1/4" wide, with center flat area about 1" wide. Outer edges sit pretty well level with underside of bolt surface. Outer edge of wood plank is slightly recessed which allows bed strip to sit lower, and also lets edge of strip fit into groove on plank.
