This bolster bracket supports your pontoon boat trailer's bunks. Constructed of corrosion-resistant galvanized steel with a sturdy base, it helps you to properly align your 6" or 8" wide bunk boards on your trailer.
Features:
- Heavy-duty bracket mounts to your pontoon boat trailer's frame or crossmembers and allows you to mount 2 bunk boards
- Stabilizes bunk boards when 2 brackets are used (other bracket sold separately)
- Does not include mounting hardware
- Wide base provides a strong mounting platform
- Slotted mounting hole allows for adjustment during installation
- 1/8" Thick, galvanized steel construction is sturdy and resists corrosion
- Made in USA
Specs:
- Quantity: 1 bracket
- Application: 6" and 8" wide bunk boards
- Dimensions: 15-1/2" long x 3" wide x 6" tall
- Mounting slot dimensions: 7-1/2" long x 1/2" wide
This bracket holds two 2"x6" or 2"x8" bunk boards angled toward each other to provide support for one of the boat's pontoons. On both the right and left sides of the trailer, one bracket is mounted in the front and another in the rear. Carpeted bunk boards typically run from front to back.
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.

Worked perfectly for my application. Had to widen an 8 foot wide trailer to accomodate a 8.5 wide boat. Bolted 2x2 to top of existing frame and then bolted these bolsters to that. Bought 2x2 plastic end caps for the 2x2 and trailer looks like it Was made at the factory this way. Was cheaper than buying a new trailer.

Built my own trailer for my pontoon boat. These brackets are very sturdy and made it easy to fabricate bunks for the trailer.

Product is as stated, read past reviews and I am familiar with stamped brackets as far as having sharp edges, to protect yourself you should always wear gloves when handling steel.

We used this product to change out 2x4” runners to 2x6” for our pontoon trailer. This product works great for this application. I would say we are completely satisfied with this product

This was my 1st purchase from etrailer and shopping with them has been great. I'm in the process of building a ramp to load and unload a 22' pontoon boat from water to shore to keep the toons looking good and for winter storage. I've made numerous phone calls with questions on different products to use and have received excellent help with professional guidance on this project. So far I've gotten a winch, 6 sets of roller bunks and 12 galv. vee- brackets to support wooden bunks. All of this has arrived in a timely manner and the cost with free shipping is better then I could buy at any marine store. Some of these products aren't even stocked in this area. Will start construction on this soon and hope to post results when finished . Thanks to etrailer for their help.

I ordered 12 of these to create a cradle for my pontoon lift at the lake. they are PERFECT. Thick gauge galvanized steel for awesome support, and the angle is perfect for my 27 foot tri-toon. The slot for mounting gave me the ability to dial in my cradle and properly support my beast. If I were to need more I would definitely buy them from etrailer again because they have the best price and the delivery was ahead of their estimated arrival time. My guess is that I won't need to because of the quality though.

I ordered these V brackets to convert an existing boat lift to accommodate a pontoon boat. Order arrived ahead of schedule and was exactly what I needed for a fair price. Can't ask for better than that!

GREAT "V" BRACKET ! No problem supporting a heavy 28' tour boat pontoon. The trailer the brackets are mounted on is used in salt water and after a year there is still no sign of rust. Excellent product !

This product is being used to construct a 22' pontoon boat trailer..when the trailer is finished I will have used 10 of the cs26244g.. I have modified the bracket by adding a stiffener piece of metal and bolting it too the under side of bracket..just a little more support if I was to haul a bigger pontoon with a very large motor...Ken

I have been buying trailer parts from etrailer for years and have always been completely satisfied. Great communication, service, shipping and extremely competitive prices. In contrast, over the last few months when I've had questions via email the etrailer staff just drops the conversation. I had follow up questions about parts and never received a reply. On one of those ocassions I bought from their competitor who cared enough to answer ALL of my questions. I also had somewhat of a surprise with my most recent order with shipping deliver dates and prices. I'll attribute these to the current times we are living in.

Perfect fit for my 9 foot Colorado XT inflatable pontoon boat. Mounted these brackets onto the plywood base of a Ironton 4' x 8' trailer. Used roller bunks on the brackets because I needed to push a second Colorado XT onto the back of my truck with the electric motor and battery still attached to the boat.

Great product, much heavier then I thought they would be. That was a good thing. Replaced old flat brackets for pontoon. It does make the boat sit a couple inches higher then what I replaced. I wen with 2x6 bunks and it worked out great. I did have to drill out some of the holes for mounting due to sloppy finish work at mfg. But worth the trouble. I would buy again.... but I hope I don't have to

- Will 12" Pontoons Work With The CE Smith V-Wing Bolster Bracket For Pontoon Trailers CE26244G?The CE Smith V-Wing Bolster Bracket for Pontoon Boat Trailers - Galvanized Steel - Qty 1 # CE26244G you were looking at is not listed for any specfic sizes of pontoons, and would work just fine with your 12" pontoons. The # CE26244G is designed for two 2"x6" or two 2"x8" bunk boards but does not included the mounting hardware so you will need to source it locally. I recommend using stainless steel hardware to keep it from rusting due to being in water. I included a video of the #...

- What Hardware Should Be Used to Install a CE Smith V-Wing Bolster BracketIn order to mount the CE Smith V-Wing Bolster Bracket for Pontoon Boat Trailers # CE26244G you'll want to use use lag screws and a washer to attach the brackets; these aren't part of any hardware that comes with the brackets so you'll need to source them via your local hardware store. According to CE Smith they recommend that a bracket be installed at each frame cross member for maximum support. The brackets are best when installed with a 2x6 or 2x8 carpeted bunk boards laid flat.

- How Many V-Wing Brackets Are Needed To Support A 28-ft Long Pontoon BoatI contacted the manufacturer and one V-Wing Bolster Bracket, Item # CE26244G, should be placed at each frame cross member. Mounting hardware for these brackets is not included so I recommend using a screw and washer like our 3/8 Inch Stainless Steel Hex Lag Screw, Item # FA74521, and Stainless Steel Washer, Item # FA0152661. I have attached a video for you to check out.

If nothing else this gives you the opportunity to ask safety-related questions about this idea. I suggest having the trailer's VIN...

But since it is expressly intended for pontoon trailer use and is made from 1/8-inch-thick galvanized steel in typical use it will be over-rated for the application with plenty of safety margin. I suggest checking out the photos some of our customers have sent in to us showing their own installations. These appear on the item's page just below our own studio photos of this part.

They are made to sit under the pontoon on the boat and need to have a secure frame to be mounted to.

Due to the difference in construction of the boats the lift may not be able to work with the pontoon...

- Galvanized Steel Pontoon Trailer Replacement V-Wing for Bunk BoardsThe CE Smith Galvanized V-Wing Bolster Bracket for Pontoon Boat Trailers # CE26244G does not include hardware. You can select galvanized hardware that will fit at your mounting point. I linked our page for galvanized u-bolt kits. This bracket is not intended for 2 x 4 bunk boards; it works with 2 x 6 or 2 x 8 boards to support your boat's pontoons. For 2 x 4 bunks you can use kit # CE10001G-4.

This bracket is designed for 2"x6" or 2"x8" bunk boards which it sounds like what you are planning to use.

view full answer... - Using Bunk Rollers For a Kayak Ramp I do not see any reason why the CE Smith Roller Bunks # CE27710 would not work for your kayak ramp. The frame has a thick 3-5mil galvanized coating that will provide years of protection without rusting or corroding. The heavy duty rubber rollers will not damage your kayak when it is slid up or down the ramp. You will want to make sure that you can secure these properly. The CE Smith V-Wing Bolster Bracket # CE26244G may work to hold the rollers at the correct angle and width for your kayak.
