• Is the 10 Inch Boat Roller Actually 10 Inches? I Need to Replace Mine that is 9 1/2 Inches
  Hello Brian, Great question. The roller that you asked about, the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly for Boat Trailers - Galvanized Steel/Black Rubber - 8" # CE10403G the roller itself is 7 5/16". If you are looking just to replace the roller and do not need the bracket, the Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers - Heavy-Duty Rubber - 10" Long - 5/8" Shaft # YR10000 is actually 9 5/16" so it will fit in a 10" bracket. I went out to the warehouse to get the measurement myself, the information...

• Replacement Keel Roller for my Calkins Boat Trailer
  I have a couple of solutions but the sizes aren't exactly what you're after. I instead recommend using the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly for Boat Trailers part # CE10405G to replace the 11.5" roller you currently have. This will allow for adjusting it to match your boats hull. Use CE Smith U-Bolts part # CE15283GA-2 if your hardware is missing or damaged. For the 7.5" use the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly for Boat Trailers part # CE10403G with the same hardware as mentioned...

• Recommended Keel Roller For Best Weight Capacity on Boat Trailer
  The Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers - Super-Heavy-Duty Rubber - 18" Long - 5/8" Shaft # YR18244-165EC is not weight rated. The weight of the boat will actually be on the bracket and the 5/8 inch shaft that runs through the heavy-duty roller. Your application with the front weight the roller is more likely to bend the longer you make the roller. For instance the 18 inch roller along with the brackets # CE10500G and Roller Shaft w/Cap Nuts 19" x 5/8" # 107-30A will be more likely...

• Replacement Roller Assembly for Deep-V Style Boat Trailer
  If you just want to replace the roller assembly you have now then the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly part # CE10401G is what I recommend. However, if you are having trouble aligning with the roller then you might want to consider a larger roller assembly like the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly part # CE10403G which is 8" wide. These options will both work great with your deep v style hull. In order to attach either option you can reuse the mounting hardware that you have now.

• Boat Trailer Roller Brackets and Pal Nuts
  Most boat trailer bow and keel rollers do use pal nuts like # CE10801 to secure the rubber roller to the support shaft and mounting bracket. From your photo I cannot tell quite what type of set-up you have. Since most of our rollers use galvanized mounts like # CE10403G and the others shown on the other linked page it may be easier and safer to install a new roller bracket.

• Availability of 7-1/2-inch-long V-Shaped Replacement Keel Roller for Boat Trailer
  My contact at Yates Rubber advises that a nominal 8-inch keel roller does not measure exactly 8 inches; typically they are slightly smaller than the specified size, much the way a piece of 2 x 4 lumber is not exactly 2-inches by 4-inches. I took measurements of several replacement rollers and confirmed that the 8-inch size generally measures 7-5/16 (just the roller itself) and 7-3/4 inches including the nylon bushings on each end. For example, the Dutton-Lainson # DL21712 is a nominal...

• Option to Replace 7-1/2 Inch Keel Roller
  The actual roller itself is not 8 inches, so even though that's in the product title, it's generally a bit shorter overall.

This would be the closest option we offer for...

• Can CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Carry Weight of Heavier Boat
  The rubber keel roller # CE10403G does not have a weight capacity though it is designed to support the added weight of heavier boats. At any given time, it is not likely that any one roller will have to support the entire weight of the boat so it is not really a concern. If you are having an issue with these rollers breaking it could be possible that your bunks aren't supporting enough of the boat's weight.

• Replacement Surge Actuator, Brake Line, V Roller, and Roller Bunks for 85 Magic Tilt Trailer
  Hey Mike, so lets start first with an actuator to replace your coupler. For that the Demco part # DM72VR would be a great option that has as easy to use latch and was designed for drum brakes and a 2 inch hitch ball. It sounds like the brake line was cut right at the back of the actuator so for a replacement for that you'd want the part # DM02032. If you needed a complete replacement brake line kit we have the part # 18SI-BLKIT that you referenced. To do new wheel cylinders on the brake...

• What Do Keel Rollers Fit Onto on Boat Trailer
  Keel rollers like the part # CE10403G that you referenced fit on a shaft that has pal nuts on either end of it. The part # CE10705A is an example of a shaft with the pal nuts. This is a shaft that is 12-3/4 inches long and 1/2 inch in diameter. Pal nuts basically are a friction fit that get tapped onto the end of the shaft.

• Keel Roller Assembly Similar to a Roller Bunk
  Though we have roller bunks like # DL21741 and a Deep V Keel Roller Assemblies such as the 8" # CE10403G and 12" # CE10455G, we do not carry what would amount to a combination of the two.

I've attached links to video reviews of these products for you to take a look at.

• Would Dutton-Lainson DL21741 Roller Bunks Contact Keel of Boat
  The # DL21741 Deluxe Roller Bunk would bolt to the bunk boards, which are designed to support the sides of the boat, not the keel. Therefore, the aft portion of the bunk rollers wouldn't contact the boat's keel. A series of keel rollers like # CE10403G would be used to support the keel.
