Specs:
Typically installed upright on the rear and middle crossmembers of a boat trailer, keel roller panel bracket assemblies help to keep the boat moving while it is being loaded and to stabilize the keel.
Galvanized Steel
Galvanized steel parts are hot-dipped in zinc after being stamped. This creates a coating that is typically 3 mil to 5 mil thick. This thick, all-around coating allows galvanized steel products to provide years of use without rusting or corroding.

This roller assembly supports your boat's keel for easy loading and safe transport on your trailer. It features a 12-inch, black rubber keel roller and a galvanized steel panel bracket with slotted mounting holes for adjustability.I was looking for an easier way to load/unload my rather heavy fishing kayak and thought about the roller system found on boat trailers. I've bought from etrailer in the past so I went to their website and found just what I was looking for. I placed my hassle free order, which promptly arrived. I was impressed with how heavy duty this thing really was. I mounted it on my truck bed extender and it works great. I ordered the 12" roller because my kayak has two openings on the bottom for the transducer and a bigger one to accommodate the pedal drive system, which always got hung up on the bed extender.
The 12” roller replaced a 4” roller. To accommodate height restrictions the roller was fastened with plate horizontal. It has worked great since then and being able to hit front roller has made loading boat a breeze.

Wanted to make an end loading kayak rack that wouldn't make me drag the boat's bottom across it. These rollers make it very easy to load the kayaks on it. Exactly what I needed.
Nice piece. Wish they had a little door that showed you you bolts for it.
Service was great, I had no problems.
Worked as intended after some maintenance and modification. The retaining caps on each end of the shaft are not secure. The shaft will come loose and you will lose the roller on the freeway somewhere if you don't take care to fasten them correctly. Two of the four assemblies I had came apart. Fortunately no damage to my boat but I feel sorry for whoever encountered the rollers behind me.
These parts are manufactured with extremely heavy duty rollers and brackets. The galvanizing on the bracket is excellent. These parts will last forever. I'm very satisfied with the quality, price, and service I got from etrailer.
Well made. I use these on my freshwater boats without any issues.
Just installed them. The first ones lasted on our bulkhead steps down to Puget Sound for about 17 years, then rusted and froze. Hope these last just as long!

Got the order when they said and in good shape. Packed well, great products at a reasonable price. The wiring harness specific to my truck made a quick and easy job of getting trailer lights working. Thanks, etrailer! I will order again and am recommending etrailer to everyone.
I am very happy with Etrailer. This is my 3rd order in the past 4 years and all parts have to do with a early 70s shoreline boat trailer which carries a 1975 Seacraft Safari. The personnel are very helpful and shipping excellent. Very pleased with the tires and wheels I got in 2011. I will be finishing up installing the parts I got this year in the near future when I pull my boat. I will let you know if I have any issues.
Received quicker than expected, went right on trailer with ease. Good product!
I ordered a pair of bunks, mounting brackets and 4 rollers from etrailer. The parts arrived when promised. All of the components supplied were great quality at a fair price. Internet shopping was easy with their website. I will certainly use them again. They deserve my five star review
This seems to be a solidly built and was easily installed. I haven't had a chance to launch and recover my boat (22' cuddy cabin) since installing it but I am confident it will be much easier!
The product works great.
Keep up the good work ...
best regards,

Came on time, good rugged roller. I mounted them to the side of my dock so I could roll my hobie kayaks up on the dock. They work great for that. My only issue was on of the end caps on on roller had come off during the shipping, there for the assembly came apart. I reassembled it and hammered the end cap back on. If it stays together I'll be happy, if not I'll have to come up with a fix for that one.
First one broke.
Replacement leaves black marks on the keel.
I have a 1990 Shore Boat Trailer all galvanised, except the bearings, brakes and roller shafts, etc. This replacement will work perfectly. Thank you for the expediency on my order. Richard
Great product, 12in. Keel roller assembly, shaft and bracket. Finding this website was easy and a great score. Very happy with the staff knowledge and the product pictures and discriptions. Shipped in days. Keep up the great service!
It is a fine product no issues no problems. Stainless steel would be better.
It works great but leaves a black streak on
The center of the boat
