Rim strip for 26x1.5 rim
The ideal rim strip depends on two factors: your rim's internal width and whether it is a singlewall or doublewall rim.
If your rim is singlewall, the 26x20mm rubber rim strip listed here will do the trick: https://www.thebikesmiths.com/products/kenda-rubber-rim-strip?variant=41461376319648
If your rim is doublewall, you'll want to use cloth rim tape instead: https://www.thebikesmiths.com/products/cloth-rim-tape?variant=37901563035808
Before purchasing, we recommend measuring your rim's internal width to ensure you select the correct size. My guess is that the 19mm cloth tape would be the best fit.

What fits a 26x1.95? Kenda tire
The rim strip will not be chosen on specific tire size, but rather rim width. You will want to choose the strip that is wide enough to cover the spokes on your rim. Most mountain bikes with a 26x1.95 tire will need a 20mm wide rim strip. Some may need a wider 25mm strip.
If you need a tire linter to protect your tire from punctures, you will want to choose the Mr Tuffy silver or brown liners: https://www.thebikesmiths.com/products/mrtuffytirelinerpair?variant=39443354642 -
What width rim liner do I need for a huffy menosa beach bike with a26” rim and a 2.125 tire and tube size
You will want to measure the rim if you are not certain. In most cases the 25mm will be OK for a basic mountain bike.
