Hi Leafy, and welcome.
Is that your pic, of your camp bed? How come it's blue?
We have that camp bed (x2) in your link, and coupled it with This SIM, at 63cm wide, and yes, it does reach the side bars. We've since added a cheapo Aldi/Lidl SIM to go below the one from GO, to double the thickness (didn't really need to, as 5cm seemed fine, but you really can't turn down a bargain!! ).
Either before that addition, or since, we have experienced no problems with which you concern yourself.
Admittedly, it wasn't something I thought about, and will now check them over next time they are out, but I roll them up, and I haven't noticed any signs of undue wear, either in those locations or elsewhere.
I think you'll be fine, but I will take a look at ours.... now you've worried me!!!
One thing I would advise though... get/make yourself a snug fitting sheet, to go around both the SIM and the bed frame. Keeps it all in place, as they can move with you otherwise.
(Thinking about it, that in itself would do more good than harm, in reducing the amount of rubbing it would cause!)
If you are really posh, like us, you can have a valance sheet..... which hides all the junk we chuck under the beds!!
